    I’ve made it with tuna and chicken. It’s my families favorite casserole and wonderful to take to a bereaved family after a death. My kids call it the “funeral” casserole. When making it just for us I throw in fresh mushrooms and black olives. Fabulous!

    Made this last night and I really liked it. I used a nice regular potato chip topping. I almost didn’t because I don’t really care for crunchy top on this dish but I’m glad I did. So in summary I made without the wine, I didn’t have garlic salt so I used powder, I also added the tuna water to the mix when I was softening the vegetables to make up for the missing liquid, added some mushrooms and finally I only had one can of cream of mushroom so I also used a can of cream of celery. So not major changes at all and it was great. I couldn’t stop eating it and it will be in my lunch kit for work too.

  3. Can I make this without the cheese?

    Wish the printing of your great recipes was easier.. doesn’t have a “print friendly” button that prints a PDF with picture… Otherwise love your recipes

      I will see what I can do about that. This is a first. When I print, it prints really easily and there is a print button. But, I will check on this with my web person. Thanks! -Amy

    Since my husband does not like cream of mushroom soup I use cream of celery instead. Tastes great.

  7. What a great dish! Especially the next day after the flavors get to blend together…
