“This recipe was easy and wonderful. I prepared it exactly as suggested, other than using hot ground pork in lieu of mild, and fresh mushrooms instead of canned. The result was a really, really tasty dish that I will definitely prepare again. If you’re not into grilling, I can’t think of a better use of summer zucchini than this recipe.” \u2014Majordobie<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“This is my go-to broccoli casserole. I use fresh broccoli and steam it just ’til it changes color. Other than that I didn\u2019t change anything. Sometimes I add either crispy onions or buttered bread crumbs to the top, but it really isn\u2019t necessary.” \u2014Auntylene<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“As a single mom, I’m always looking for quick and simple recipes. Well, this definitely fits the bill\u2014I didn’t change it much at all. Even my picky 7-year-old scarfed it down and she even asked for seconds. This will become a staple for us.” \u2014Christina<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“Fans of poppy seed chicken will enjoy this recipe. What makes this one different from my usual recipe is the layer of buttery crumbs on the bottom of the pan in addition to a layer sprinkled on top.” \u2014AMYNTEXAS\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“This was really simple and tasty! I think it could have used a little more salt for my taste, but I love that it\u2019s a one-and-done meal, and smelled so much like a cheeseburger while it cooked! Just adjust seasonings to your tastes and you have a family-friendly dinner.” \u2014fabeveryday<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“Made it exactly as printed except I stirred the grated Cheddar into the mashed potatoes, then added just a light sprinkle of shredded Parm on top with a few shakes of smoky paprika for color. It was great. Easy, filling, and requires no brain cells after a busy day!” \u2014Lisa Lefebvre<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“I absolutely loved this dish. I would probably add garlic salt for a bit more flavor. I added a red bell pepper as well as a green, and I’m glad I did; it added just a hint of sweetness. The thing that really sold me on this, though, was how filling it was. I made the pan for my husband and me, and it lasted us almost a whole week.” \u2014Shan Spaff<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
