The ultimate comfort food! Easy and delicious!
"Delicious! This will be a "Keeper " in our home. I did have a couple of modifications...added a cup of peas as I sautéed the celery and onion and slightly increased the spices due to this addition. Also, since I didn't have breadcrumbs readily available, I crushed a half sleeve of Ritz crackers for the topping. Baked uncovered at 350 for 45 minutes. " - YodaleeYield: 4 Ready in 45 minutes
