Family Thoughts
The whole family loves this, the kids prefer I leave the peas out and we often have corn on the side instead. Can be made earlier in the day and stored in the fridge until it's time to bake - just increase cooking time.
I know people use canned soup in recipes and have since my grandmother's day, but have you looked at how much sodium there is in a can of soup? It's a mindboggling amount. For a healthier and more flavourful alternative, it's not that hard to make stock from left over chicken bones and use that instead. More flavourful and healthier.
ReplyDeleteKelly - thanks for your tip and you are right, that is definitely a healthier version for those who have left over chicken bones! We appreciate you sharing a healthier tip.
DeleteThis recipe was delicious for muh whole family but it made my vulva quite dry.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, my mother used to make tuna casserole all the time! It was my favourite! Thanks for sharing this recipe!
ReplyDeleteSounds like an easy casserole to make. Thanks for the recipe, will have to try it! (Judy Cowan)
ReplyDeleteWe don't like mushrooms, so we used cream of chicken soup instead, still very good
