OK, so , when I read these reviews I always think "if they changed it, how can they rate it so high?". Now I know why. This is a great dish. I loved it. My family loved it. Here's the thing, I found it to be very dry. Some of the noodles get hard (to the point of being inedible). So I served around them. I quickly made a roux, added milk, sour cream, chicken broth and then stirred in some more cheese until it melted. It took 5 minutes and it was a great "side of sauce". With the extra sauce, this was sooooooo delicious. If I rated this recipe lower because it was dry and others did the same, no one would make it and that would be too bad because it is really very good. To me, this is a minor tweak as opposed to some of the reviews I have read that make major changes to the recipe making it in essence a whole new dish. So...5 stars for this casserole, just double the sauce.

This was good...but a little on the dry side as written. I added extra sour cream, milk and soup and felt it could've used even more. Add salt and pepper to taste.

This was pretty good as a quick recipe to use up some leftovers, but the older I get, the less I can stand canned cream of anything soup. It just tasted like... soup. Salty soup. I added dijon to the soup mix... didn't help much. Would be much better if you just made your own bechamel seasoned to taste.

Easy to make and delicious! Next time I make it I will probably mix the ham, chicken, etc with the pasta instead of layering it on top. But it was still awesome!

I used some sour cream mixed with chives and garlic salt, regular soup. I mixed it all up together other than the topping. I also only put bread crumbs on half. I didn't have swiss cheese, so I used a 4 cheese mix and topped it with it. Turned out awesome and everyone loved it.

Hmmmmmm......so I don't know about this one. I followed the recipe exactly and it was just ok. The egg noodles seemed to make things a bit bland. I should've known better and added some salt and pepper because it really needed it. With a few tweaks this could be a solid casserole.

Very good recipe. I did not use the low fat soup, double the bread crumb topping. I did not use bread crumbs, I used Ritz crackers crushed up in place of bread crumbs. It gets a 6 star in my book! Thanks much for the recipe.

Tasty and easy. I may try adding a little Dijon next time to the sauce.

This was a pretty good way to transform chicken cordon bleu into a casserole. Hubby thinks it loses some of the swiss cheese flavor, but I think the swiss is fine. A nice easy meal.

This is the best "pasta" casserole I've had in my life. It was so good that I called my best friend half way through dinner to tell her she needed to make this. I used shredded Swiss cheese instead of cubed, and I did not use reduced-fat soup or reduced-fat sour cream because I had some regular sour cream to use up and my local grocery store doesn't carry reduced fat cream of chicken soup (I'm not kidding). Also, I mixed everything together first (except for the topping) before putting it in the casserole dish instead of just putting it on top of the pasta, then I put the topping on. The topping is very good. It's similar to the topping I use on other casseroles, but I never thought to put Parmesan cheese in it before...duh. I will make this again for sure!
