Made as a dinner casserole by adding thinly sliced kielbasa, 3 cloves pressed garlic, and WAY more cheese. 1 small block xtra sharp cheddar, and 1 small block pepper jack. Put 3/4 of it in and other 1/4 on top. Used sliced green onions and some onion salt, instead of dried flakes. Used fresh grated potatoes, and as I didnt have cornflakes, used panko bread crumbs. Very tasty this way.

I used 2 T of butter, with a small splash of olive oil, added thinly sliced garlic and shallots, and cut the balsamic down to 1/8 cup. Thought it wss wonderful, and husband loved it.

I softened 1 T. minced onion in the butter before adding the flour. Was out of milk, so had to use heavy cream. Only used 3 spoons full of peas, along with some of the liquid to help thin the heavy cream. Added marjoram, parsley, and dill, and still thought it needed something. Threw in a decent splash of hot sauce and it came out pretty tasty.

Using a teaspoon of soy and a tablespoon of balsamic made this recipe outstanding! Friends that I served this to, called today for the recipe! (That's what reminded me to do the review)

Excellent! Cooked carrots in small amount of water first, before continuing with recipe.

Excellent recipe. First time prepared exactly as written, with outstanding results. Second time, used chicken breasts--(seared in mustard, transferred to warm oven until sauce was prepared, then transferred back to skillet to continue cooking in sauce). Also added sauteed sliced baby portabella mushrooms. Served with rotini, Balsamic Glazed Carrots from this site, and portabella cheddar foccacia bread.

First of all I halved the recipe, substituting finely minced onions for the onion powder and garlic powder instead of garlic salt. Even still, my mother and I thought it was way too salty. The people I served this to at the meeting all seemed to love it. I think the next time I would not use quite all of the ranch packet mix, to reduce the saltiness. Also, per personal preference, I think I will up the cayenne a tad.

Am giving this a 4 as is, but I think adding nutmeg bumps it up to 5! Only used 3 eggs, added the nutmeg, and baked for 50 minutes. (Was just a little short on the vanilla extract, and made up the difference with almond extract.)

Am giving this 4 stars, since I didn't follow the recipe exactly. Used other reviewers suggestions, and added salt, pepper, garlic powder and a few bread crumbs to cheese. Also, doubled the sauce adding salt, pepper, a little more garlic and a small pinch of nutmeg,and used capers instead of pimiento. Chicken was super moist, and sauce was very tasty. Will definitely make again.

A good recipe, but I add thinly sliced green onions, to taste, and freshly ground black pepper. For those who thought it was bland "as is", try these additions. And yes, making it in advance adds to flavor. (I always use the Hormel bacon pieces, so no soggy bacon)

Overall, this was very tasty. Mine came out a little runnier than I would have liked. Next time I will drain the Ro-tel tomatoes. Some of my bottom tortillas were tough, so think I will put a small amt. of sauce in bottom first. I wanted a little more umph, so added hot sauce to my serving.

Used fresh bread and let it stale overnight. Skipped the mushrooms, (daughter doesnt like)but otherwise followed recipe. Was very moist, and loved not having to put it in the oven! Forgot to turn crockpot off until clean up time, and a small amount around edges got a little dry, but was still good the next day.

This was a big hit at my Bunco party last night! I doubled the recipe exactly, but found that I could have used more fruit.

Used 1 3/4 cup whole milk for each pudding, sliced the cake, then layered it. I thought it was pretty good, but had 12 people here for dinner last night and not even a third of it was eaten. (And these are dessert loving people!) Tried some today, and it was not soggy. Not sure if I would make again.

Following others suggestions: Increased gr bf to 2 lbs,(increasing onions, parmesan and brd crumbs), adding 1 egg, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Rolled meatballs small. Put minced garlic in crm chs mixture. Made crm chs mixture the night before and refrigerated until ready to spread. (Maybe this helped it not be soggy?) Used twin loaves French bread, slit lengthwise, toasted. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS! The crusty side of the bread got crustier, and was hard to cut through. Next time will slice and toast instead. Used enough extra sauce to completely cover. DID NOT USE WATER. Served this last night for my Bunco party and it was the first thing to disappear, and the most requested recipe. Definitely a keeper!!!

I opted to use 3 1/2 onion bagels, and cubed them. I used 14 eggs and added salt and extra cheese. I kept covered with foil, and increased the baking time to 45 min. Quite tasty!!

I followed the various suggestions, using brown sugar, and ground cloves, and a smidge of pineapple juice. I turned the scored side down, cut slices down the top side, and basted every 18 minutes. This was the MOISTEST ham I have ever eaten, and hubby loved it! I didnt have a fully cooked ham, so baked for 18 minutes per pound. The amount of sauce in this recipe worked out perfectly for my 11.5 lb. ham. EXCELLENT!, will definitely make again.
