"Does this call for fresh dill? If using dried dill, I imagine you'd have to cut back the quantity used?"
"While I liked the dish, my husband and daughter didn't and I can't understand why they didn't like it because they actually like all of the ingredients."
"Gross! I cut the dill to only three teaspoons and it was still too much. Took a few bites but couldn't continue. What a waste of time."
"It's surprising there are not more reviews for this dish. It is absolutely amazing! My entire family loves it including my kids."
"This was disgusting!! My husband took three bites and threw it in the garbage. Labor-intensive and gross. Don't waste your time and money on this one. The dill is what made it really bad, but even if I skipped that step, it still wouldn't be good."
"It's a little labor-intensive for my family, but with leftover mashed potatoes and left-over ham, it becomes easier. We LOVE it!"
"We have a lot of brunches with a group of friends. Could this recipe be prepared the night before, refrigerated, and then baked in the morning before guests arrive?"
