I found this kind of bland. I don't know what it needs - more soy sauce? Some spices? Unless I find a way to jazz this up, I won't make it again.

After reading all the reviews, I made the following changes: I used 2 cups of rice, I added a large can of water chesnuts and I used cream of mushroom soup instead of cream of chicken. I also added fresh mushrooms when I was sauteeing the onions. I was very happy with the result. It was great tasting, easy meal.

On a scale of 1 to 10, my husband and I both gave this a 6. Not bad, but also, not fantastic.

This is one of my favorite recipes. Been making it for at least 15 years or more. Great for potlucks. Heats up well and can be made ahead of time, frozen & poped in the oven when you come home from work. Very easy to put together. I add extra water chestnuts as we love the crunch.

I've made this recipe 4-5 times now and my young daughters all enjoy it! I also used 2 cups rice and omit the almonds. I did try with cream of mushroom soup once when I didn't have cream of chicken on-hand -- the cream of chicken soup definitely tastes better.

This has become a family favorite - I've made it twice in 2 weeks! My husband and 3 year old daughter love it, and my mother-in-law raved about it when she had it while visiting us. It's REALLY versatile, you can use whatever you have on hand, it's quick, and it's filling. Hooray!

I loved it, very different. My fiance didn't like it, but he told me afterwards that he doesn't like chow mein noodles or cooked almonds! It is pretty salty, so you might want to use low sodium soup and/or soy sauce if you don't like salt.

My family thought that this recipe was a little bit bland. If I make it again I think that I will add more vegetables and maybe put the chow mein noodles on the bottom so they soften up some.

I loved it, picky hubby hated it. I used the mushroom soup instead of the cream of chicken, added water chestnuts and Asian spice blend. Hubby said it was too bland, I thought it could have used some more spices but overall I liked it.

I don't add the noodles before baking, I toast them slightly in my toaster oven (watch, don't burn!) and everyone sprinkles them on at the table according to taste. We also pass the soy sauce, and black pepper in case someone wants more. The cream soup can be celery, mushroom or chicken and you can add stuff or leave stuff out and adjust to taste or what you have on hand within reason... It's so versatile! This is so good with a side of fresh fruit salad.

I upped the rice to 2c and like so many others, used cream of mushroom soup instead. Other than that, followed the recipe to the letter. Pretty good stuff, not gourmet by it is a homey, filling dinner. Thanks

When I first saw this recipe, I KNEW I had to make it! My mom used to make this exact dish when we were younger. I remember complaining about it all the while, but I find I am craving her casserole's more and more now that I am away from it! Very good - didn't use almonds, although I think that would be a nice addition for next time. Also, added a can of drained mushrooms!

I am giving this a 3 and only a 3 because my family liked this and I did not. The taste was not that great. Not terrible...just not something that I would look forward to making again. I would however suggest putting others things in there to spice it up...maybe some pea pods and the like.

This was very good. I took it to work for lunch and actually had people stop and tell me how good it smelled! I took some of the advice from other reviews and added a can of water chestnuts to this. I also toasted the almonds to bring out more of the flavor. Thanks! Good recipe!

I didn't follow this recipe too closely, but it was a easy to prepare meal. I used cream of mushroom rather than cream of chicken soup. Didn't have celery or almonds. I really think the extra crunch would have been nice, it was a little mushy and didn't have much texture without. If I make again I will probably follow the recipe more closely.

We loved it!!!! Added a can of mushrooms,used cream of mushroom soup and "veggie meat" instead of hamburger. My non-vegetarian husband did not know the difference. The leftovers were delicious also. Would recommend only putting the noodles on half if you are expecting to have leftovers as they did get soggy.
