Baked Fish Casserole

Submitted by Jill L. "Margaritta Lover"

"Need a change from boring, basic fish? My family loves this recipe. I have been told it is "to die for". I have made it several times (changing the type of fish fillets). My favorites are salmon and walleye. 2 lbs of fillets is an estimate. You will need enough fish to line the bottom of a 9 by 13 cake pan."

Although this recipe calls for 3 cheeses and cream of mushroom soup, the dish itself does not feel heavy or overly rich. We both really enjoyed this one. A minor alteration - we used gluten-free bread and crumbled it on top in lieu of the ritz crackers. I'll use more seasoned salt next time! Thanks, Jill L.
