EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Add flavor to meatballs by using ground pork or Italian sausage for part of the ground beef.

One can of condensed tomato soup plus 1 teaspoon of roasted garlic from a jar and 1 teaspoon of dried basil leaves can be used in place of condensed tomato soup with roasted garlic and herbs.

To reduce the fat in each serving of this casserole by about 6 grams and the calories by about 60, use 1 cup of nonfat milk or water in place of the half-and-half.

This is a super-easy and very flavorful casserole. After fixing this one time, the recipe is going into my permanent file. In addition to being very tasty when first cooked, it also reheats really well in the microwave.
