We really liked this. And it was very easy to make, which is very important to me! Most nights of the week I don't have time to fix anything very complicated or involved. The only change I made was to leave off the buttered bread crumbs, and to sprinkle just a small amount (apx 1/4 cup) of shredded cheddar on top during the last 10 minutes of baking. I'll definitely be making this again, after dinner DH said "This is a keeper." That's pretty high praise from him
