Familiar ingredients make this dish comforting for me. The cheddar cheese is the same kind my family has used for years to make grilled cheese sandwiches. And the croutons remind me of Thanksgiving dinners. —Eliane Oneyear, River Forest, Illinois

I made this recipe for Girl's week-end. It was commented many times of how awesome it was. They called me the squah Queen!

My picky husband was not happy that I was going to try something new again until he ate the meat mixture and said it was great! My 4yr old helped me good it and even my 10mo old ate it. I think it would be a keeper even in the winter to serve over rice!!

I used sage seasoned breakfast sausage, beef broth and button mushrooms (no portobello mushrooms were available). These were absolutely DELICIOUS and will definitely go into regular rotation on our fall/winter dinner menu.

WOW amazing!! I used the white wine, white mushrooms, sweet Italian sausage and took 3 piece of white bread cut into pieces instead of croutons. I forgot the parmesan cheese, oops. Used block 2% white sharp cheddar cheese and grated it. My husband is still walking around saying that was really good as I write this. I must try..
