Grainy Casserole

Casserole.  The word brings images to mind of a woman dressed like June Cleaver in the 1950's wearing pearls and a fancy apron, waltzing around the kitchen as she whips up a tasty dish for her husband and children.  With that in mind, you may be disappointed to learn that during my casserole-making experience today I was wearing jeans and a Beatles t-shirt.  No pearls.  No fancy apron, well I have one, but forgot to pull it out of the pantry! Despite my less than classical attire, making the dish had a similar feeling of comfort, like a peaceful time gone by when folks still said things like, "Golly gee whiz!"

Making this casserole is fairly simple, but it tastes great and leaves you feeling very satisfied.  Modify the cream of mushroom soup and sour cream additions to suit your dietary considerations.  I love the flavor of the roasted garlic cream of mushroom soup. It smells wonderful as the casserole is bubbling away in the oven. You'll know it's done when the cheese reaches your favorite level of crispness, or gooeyness if that is what you prefer.  I like crispy cheese and will certainly fight you for a corner piece of most baked things!!
