Questions & Replies

  1. I being Amish I don't see how this is Amish Yumazuti Casserole I have lived in 3 different communities this is not how we make it. There has been a lot of changes made in this version that is almost not recognizable. We do not use tomato soup and we don't put sugar or Seasoning Salt, of any kind in it. there is no way would we ever use fake Velveeta cheese in it The shredded cheese is just not on top it is layer throughout, if it is use at all.We have a cream chicken base that we use in it along with dice or stew tomatoes and we don't always use straight hamburger lots of time its half sausage and hamburger.

  1. Like it was said this is a very basic simple casserole dish. We all loved it. I used gound chicken instead of beef. I assembled it the night before so I cooked it a little longer than the recipe stated. Great recipe. Thanks
     
  2. This was a very tasty dish. Quick and easy to make with nice results. Reminded me of a homemade hamburger helper. The sauce covered the noodles perfectly. It was very flavorful. Thanks for sharing. Made for What's on the Menu? Tag Game.
     
  3. DH and I liked this lots!!! Easy to make ahead and bake when you are ready. Leftovers are better than the first day!! The only change I made was to use home canned tomatoes (1 1/2 cups) in place of tomato soup, as I didn't have any on hand. Great recipe!
     
  4. Very good recipe, would make it again. I would use the mushroom soup next time instead of cream of chicken.
     
  5. This was easy and delicious, and take my word for it, you do want to use velveeta instead of cheese singles to hold this together. My family really enjoyed it. I took a picture that I hope to post later this week.
