Grandma’s Three Cheese Casserole, This is the only recipe I have from my grandma on my dad’s side My mom got the recipe from her shortly after she met my dad, and she made it often as I was growing up Now, I make it for my family, and they really enjoy it! The recipe combines some unique flavors and ingredients, which may appear strange But, I assure you, give it a try and you will likely be surprised at how yummy it is! Serve with veggies, and bread if you like , I like this recipe but with a few adjustments to suit our tastes We don’t like our dishes real goopy/creamy so first off I cut the servings in 1/2 but still used 1 1/4 lb of beef/seasonings & 5 oz (vs 3) of noodles I found it lacked abit on taste so I put an extra Tbsp of chili sauce This dish was alittle thick still so I’d increase the water (or use broth) To cut some fat/calories I skipped the cheddar cheese also A very hearty meal that is easy to put together , Half my family hates mushrooms and the other have can not stand water chesnuts (not even by accident)! HA What else would you suggest to replace them? I am sure this extra volume makes the casserole flavor stretch If I made this dish without the extra volume it may be too rich alone
