I got this recipe from a family I babysat for. The kids weren't too crazy about meat unless it was hamburgers, but they LOVED this. I added the fresh mushrooms and parmesan cheese in the casserole. Everyone I have ever cooked this for has loved it and it is often requested at potlucks. Enjoy and let me know what you think
