This dish was too spicy for my taste. I would use less cayenne pepper next time.

The cheese sauce was too thick. I would thin it out with some milk next time.

The shrimp and sausage were overcooked, but the cheese sauce was delicious. I would make this dish again, but I would cook the shrimp and sausage for a shorter amount of time.
