I omitted the celery and added some seasoning salt to the ground beef as well as some milk to the soup and it was delicious!! I also used slightly less noodles, maybe about 10 oz. instead. My family likes alot of cheese so I upped the cheddar and cooked the entire thing for about 35 minutes. That seemed to be plenty. It wasn't dry at all. IT was moist, tasty and just plain a keeper!

i thought it was pretty good, but my husband loved it and said to add it to the permanent meal plan :) and to me that is what is important :)

I double the recipe. I added one can of cream of chicken and one of cream of celery, three cans of tomato, a cup of light sour cream and I added three shredded zuchini and one shredded carrot. It turned out really good. I added some cheese mixed in but skipped adding it to the top. My family loved this and the kids didn't even know they were eating veggies.

It wasn't very good. It had too much of a "sweet" taste. Should have read the reviews first!

We made this recipe with an extra can of cream of mushroom soup because of the other reviewers reporting dryness, and substituted turkey meat for beef. The meal was pretty good, not exceptional. For me, it had a little too much of a celery taste. Overall it was pretty good, though if I make it again I will maybe reduce or remove the celery and would add some more tomatoes. Perhaps I would also add some peppers to give it a little kick, it was a bit bland for me.

This recipe had no flavor and was dry. Very disappointing to the family as it smelled wonderful cooking.

What a success! I, like other reviewers, was a bit skeptical about how ground beef and cream of chicken would go together but it's great! I added a 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes with green chiles (Rotel), and instead of celery, added a can of cream of celery soup, for a total of two cans tomatoes and two cans of soup. I seasoned some ground turkey with some mexican seasoning, upped the onion, and put plenty of cheese in the mix -- no layering. More cheese went on top and cooking it for about 30 minutes was perfect! Thanks for the great recipe!

Well... It tasted like goulash. Unfortunately,none of us really care for goulash. However we did eat most of it. Luckily, we had a lot of parmesan cheese on hand.

This was pretty good. I double the cream of chicken soup and tomatoes, but otherwise followed the recipe. Nothing too fancy, but a good simple casserole.

I was desperate to make dinner and NOT go to the store, so this was okay. I am hoping that it is better the second day, after it has been in the fridge all night. I used two cans of tomatoes and I mixed in sour cream and milk with the soup, cream of mushroom, - as recommended by someone else. Not a big hit with my kids. :(

I thought this recipe was horrible! It tasted just like hamburger helper

Not a fan. Very dry, noodles were burnt on the top, and don't want to serve it to my husband when he comes home from work. A waste of ingrediants, should have read the reviews and added more stuff to make it moist. I don't understand how this recipe got a 4 out of 5, when most of the reviews all say it's dry. I just saw 4 stars out of 200+ rates and figured it had to be good. Very disappointed.

Very good, family and friends loved this. Substituted cream of chiken soup with cream of celery, and omitted the celery. Excellent.

It was Ok- my family didn't care for it.

A little odd for us. This is our first ever casserole and we all kind of just looked at when it came out of the oven and said "huh". Better than we had anticipated but nothing we will make again.

I used ground turkey and half of the noodles called for. I also used two cans of cream of chicken soup. I chopped the celery fairly small. I mixed it all together and added more cheese. I baked it uncovered for 45 min. We loved it! Very good flavors.

This was surprisingly tasty. I didn't think that the beef and cream of chicken would go, but they do. I made a few adjustments, according to other's suggestions. I halved the noodles (which proved to be the perfect amount), added a little bit of milk and sour cream (maybe 1/3 cup milk and 2 T s.c), and omitted the celery (mainly because I prefer celery to be fresh or cooked in a stew/soup). I then put the noodles on the bottom, then mixed everything else (except cheese) together and poured that over the noodles, then covered and baked for 30 min. Then I sprinkled cheese on it (just how much looked good to me) and then covered and baked for 10 more min. Turned out really tasty. I'll definitely make again and the ingredients are usually always in my cupboards.

This was pretty good. I did make a few changes though. I didn't add any celery, since I'm not a big fan of it. I used cream of mushroom instead of cream of chicken, since that is what I had on hand. I only used about 8 oz of egg noodles - which was plenty. And I added about 1/2 c. of milk to the dish too, since so many reviews said that it may come out too dry. After I browned the hamburger, I mixed everything together in a casserole dish, including the cheese, which I used about a cup of, covered it and baked it for about 45 minutes. My 11 month old loved it. I did season it with salt and pepper, and I think I'll use a little more cheese next time.

A wee bit bland for us. Also, did not like the taste of the cooked celery in it at all. This recipe is missing something - although I am not sure what. Will just move on to other beef/noodle casserole recipes.

We love this recipe! Comfort food at it's best.
