I'm going to have to try this one!
ReplyDeleteI love this cooking blog! Good job!
I have really been wanting to try this one! It looks so yummy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recipe! I tried it tonight w/ ground chicken, and DH and I both liked it!
ReplyDeleteOh, this sounds delicious! It is hard to find good, healthy casserole recipes. I bet the cashews really add to the flavor! Yum!
ReplyDeleteI had heard that using chicken broth on meatless days is permissible... is that so, or is it a requirement to use veggie broth on meatless days? I have noticed that the brands of veggie broth in my grocery store seem to have lots more weird ingredients in them than the chicken broth, oddly enough, so I typically buy the chicken broth...
I happen to have this recipe, and, oddly enough, made it last night. The only variation is than mine calls for feta cheese-yum!
ReplyDeleteI am eating more of a Vegan diet for health reasons and this would be perfect with the vegetable broth and a dairy free cheese sub. I think we'll try this when my husband is home this weekend. It looks delicious.
