I enjoyed this comforting dish with a baked chicken breast and a salad but it would also be good with some nice bread.

UPDATE: I've made this twice now and realized that it's better to use a smaller, deeper dish, and to bake it longer. I ended up doing about 35-40 minutes. It got much creamier and more like a gratin by cooking it that way. Original Review: I used Panko as well, 1/2 cup. It was good. Kind of like a breakfast casserole more than a gratin though.2Reply
