Personally, I don't think this recipe needs anything. For someone who's watching their carbs, this is great. I didn't miss the noodles, potatoes or rice in this casserole. With the monterrey jack cheese, this was just right. And since my husband is a carb-lover, I just served this with Texas Toast and he was a happy man. Nice and hearty meal.

Well this was excellent, but I did change a couple of things. I couldn't find my celery soup, so I used my cream of broccoli.Then I microwaved 2 potatoes, cut them up and added them, also added a little hot seasoning (I'm married to a man that thinks everything should have that. He LOVED it.

I also put egg noodles on the bottom (3 cups precooked)and followed the rest of recipe except. Kept the perfectly steamed fresh broccoli separate (they will overcook)and used 1 cup of a soft cheese (forget name but like parmesean, definitely an italian cheese). You can always mix the broccoli in at the end. It did taste like a "good" hamburger helper!

This recipe as written is definitely lacking and only 2 stars to me. I used cream mushroom soup since in house. I also layered over noodles tossed with parmesan, garlic powder and butter, then added the cheese to top layer. This was all in an attempt to salvage this very bland recipe. My end result was kind of like hamburger helper. It was better the next day as a leftover after the flavors blended, but not a redo.

Good but wouldn't be a fave of mine. I made it as written with no exceptions except for using fresh broccoli. I steamed it about 5 minutes and wonder if I should have. It did heat up nicely in the nuker as leftovers.

I made mashed potatoes on the side to go with it. The next time I'll put it all together and bake it like a sheperd's pie. I used cream of mushroom as that's all I had. It was delicious and you could substitute other veggies instead of the broccoli. Give it a try.

Very good! I thought I had everything I needed, didn't even look, just got started. I didn't have the Cream of celery soup or any other! All I could find was a packet of Knor's Cream of Spinach dip mix. Heated it with a cup of milk and the sour cream. Put in a few spoonfuls of mayo too. Also short on cheese,so I sprinkled parmesan on top of the broccoli. I also put egg noodles on the bottom as suggested. Did have some grated colby jack for the top. Even though I had to make the changes it turned out great. I give it five stars for being so flexible! Thanks. Two days later... Been eating the leftovers, which has been good also, but I have a few thoughts about what I would change. Decided I didn't like the noodles on the bottom. Next time no noodles, or cooked seperately, buttered. They compacted on the bottom, didn't like that. Also I would not pre-steam the broccoli. I only steamed it quickly, but still the broccoli was too soft for my liking. I only had frozen broccoli, fresh might be better, still not cooked. I will make this again and another thank you for the post.

Loved this casserole. Quick and easy on a busy day. My 4 kids ate it all up, and hubby liked it too. I also tweaked it to our tastes -- left out the mushrooms because I didn't have any on hand and used seasoning salt instead of regular. Also substituted cr. of mushroom soup for the celery. Jalapeno havarti cheese on top instead of Monterey Jack. Served with rice. I'd like to try it with potatoes cooked in, as suggested in other reviews. Definitely a recipe I'll use again. It's even a great one for starter cooks, like my 9 year old!

This didn't work for us. I really wanted to like it, but the broccoli was mushy and the sauce felt like it was missing something. It kind of reminded me of beef stroganoff with broccoli and cheese.

I have been making this for group gathering's and it has been the biggest hit each time. I made it for a Holiday Gathering on Saturday and it was gone before I knew it and everyone wanted the recipe. It is also very easy to make.

I tried this recipe for dinner last night. My whole family loved it! It has wonderful flavor and wonderful texture. I also think it will prove to be really versatile. It stands alone as a casserole ad while we were eating, we came up with a bunch of ideas that we could use it for as well. Thanks for posting it! Dot72

Like just about everyone else, I made this recipe my own, I added the 2 cubed potatoes, which I sautee'd for a few minutes first. I mixed in a handful of jack and a handful of cheddar cheeses and then put some more on top. I seasoned the meat really well and added the slice mushrooms and chopped onion when I cooked it. I baked covered at 400 degrees for 30 minutes then uncovered for another 15, I let stand 15 minutes and it was great! My boys and I love casseroles, my husband, not so much! But he thought it was alright and will be willing to eat it again! YUMMY!

I omitted the mushrooms but used mushroom soup instead of celery soup. It was easy and tasty but just a wee bit bland - but I also leave out the salt because my family overuses it on the table! That might be all that was missing. Will make again, everyone liked it even my "doesn't eat red meat" daughter!

This recipe is a keeper. The best part is that I already had most of the ingrediants on hand. I did cut the recipe in half as we are only a family of three. I added garlic powder to the meat mixture and omitted the mushrooms. Instead of having to bake it in the oven I ended up adding about one cup of milk to the skillet and brought it to a boil. I added the broccoli and reduce it to a simmer, covered and let it cook until the broccoli was tender. When it was ready I adjusted the seasonings and took another reviewer's advice and served it over baked potatoes and topped with cheese. It was excellent!

quite tastey. I would reccommend that you let the casserole set for about 10 minutes before serving up. Let the soup and sourcream set a little.

This recipe came up during an ingredients search. I used fresh broccoli and steamed it for a few minutes. Next time, I won't steam it since it gets so soft during baking. Per others' suggestions, I used half the sour cream and a lot less cheese (even though we're cheese lovers). I spread cooked egg noodles on the bottom of a glass 13x9 pan. I layered broccoli on that, and then the meat mixture. Then topped off with cheese. I baked for 50-minutes. My husband and two picky eater sons all liked it. It's pretty simple and a great way to get veggies and meats into the family.
