This is awesome. So much creamier then the recipe I use to use. I just added some mix veg to mine, but made it exactly as the recipe calls for aside from that. I always sneak in veg on my boyos.

I've made this as written and it's very good. Tonight I diced celery and onions and browned in butter. I also added a little onion powder to the mixture and doubled the topping. It was very yummy.

Made this tonight for dinner, was really good. did add 1 1/2 cups Colby jack cheese, and 1 teaspoon onion powder. Hubby thought it was definitely a keeper.

My husband really loves this casserole and once I started doubling the liquid mixture, I loved it too. I like my casseroles creamier versus drier and I found that by doubling the liquid, it was the perfect consistency for a creamy casserole.

I liked this recipe after adding onion, garlic, celery, mushrooms and some added seasoning per the reviews I read. Peas would be nice for some folks who like peas. The base recipe is perfect

To make this a complete meal, we added frozen peas before baking. My husband can't eat spicy or heavily seasoned food, so the sour cream added just enough zip to make this recipe a winner in our home.
