100% would make again

This mouth-watering casserole makes an excellent potluck dish. It's creamy and just bursting with flavor. A golden topping made of cornflakes and almonds offers 'crunch' appeal! —Michelle Krzmarzick Redondo Beach, California

yes, it was vinegar, all you have to do is put a little vinegar&water in the kettle, let it come to a full boil, let sit a few mins. and rinse clean.

Can you help me?

Mom and Grandma used to boil up the tea/water kettle with a solution---

Was it "vinegar" ? to rid the kettle of calcium deposits? Please help if you can.

this was a yummy dish but, I reduced the fat with light sour cream, cream chicken soup and mayo and poured over small amount of noodles
