I did tweak the recipe a bit, it still turned out so yummy! I sautéed the onions in with a bunch of butter and onion powder. I mixed the milk in with the velveeta cheese block in a separate pot so it melted without burning, then mixed all the ingredients together. I used 1 can of the combo cream of mushroom and cream of chicken soup and a can of celery soup. I put a little sharp cheddar cheese on top so when it bakes it comes out pretty ?

I've made this dish too many times to count, both as a side dish & a complete meal. To do that I add chicken & mushrooms & it is so delicious. Saute mushrooms with the onions & add chicken of your choice. My husband prefers dark meat so we cut boneless, skinless thighs into bite size pieces & saute in olive oil. Also,like others, I melt the cheese in a saucepan with the milk & soup, pour it over everything and mix together. So good!

I used Cream of Mushroom soup, added mushrooms and celery (I had it in the refrigerator and wanted to use it up) and put crispy fried onions on top. It was so yummy. My husband went back for three helpings.

Love this recipe! My kids do too. I usely double it and add minced garlic when I saute my onions, along with nature's seasoning. Also I bake a bag of frozen chicken tenders with roasted garlic and herb seasoning. And add some sharp cheddar cheese in top at the ebd. We love garlic and cheese obviously. This makes a great all in one dish to take to "bring-a-dish" gatherings when you can't decide whether to bring a side-dish or a meat. Taking it tonight. Thanks for sharing !
