I was so happy to find this recipe. I used to make this when my husband and I were first married but the recipe had been lost and forgotten. It was very easy to make and trouble-free. I doubled this recipe for my family and had one serving leftover for a lunch. The only thing that I changed was that I put the topping chow mein noodles on ten minutes before it was done. My family (including the teenagers) loved it! Thanks!

this is a great recipe! i will definately make it again. i did modify it a little. i used 98%fat free cream of mushroom and only 1 and 1/2 cups of chow mein noodles. 1 cup i stirred in with the casserole and the other half i topped with at the last 5 min of cooking. it didn't take 50 min. for me though. it was plenty done in about 30. wanted you all to know that the nutrition info is incorrect. with the lighter substitutions i made, it still had more calories than indicate. my modified recipe contained 1098 total calories: 274 calories per serving.
