I love these vintage recipes with curry powder! I added half a cup of chopped pecans for texture and some minced fresh parsley to give it some color. I also doubled the curry powder and Worcestershire sauce. I wish I would have read other people's tweaks because I would have added broccoli. I will make this again. It's a good recipe for the quarantine since it uses so much shelf stable things.

After my early morning work-out in the pool at the gym today, so hungry. Looked at what I had on hand and came to this recipe. Made the following changes: fresh lemon juice, dill weed, sautéed onions/sweet peppers, mozzarella cheese instead of cheddar, 2 tablespoons of butter, 1 1/2 tablespoons flour, 1/2 cup rice, panko bread crumbs on top (drizzled evoo on top) the last 10 minutes until golden brown. So good, I ate 2 servings. Most certainly a keeper. Thanks Timothy!!!

Very good! My family liked this alot, so I will be making it again. I made a few modifications since I didn't have any Curry Powder. I thought I had some, made the majority of the recipe, and then discovered I was out! Instead of Curry, the spices I used were: ~3/4 tsp. fresh dill (although I might increase it to 1 tsp. next time), ~1 T. Mrs. Dash, ~1/4 tsp. Pepper, and ~1/8 C. finely chopped onions mixed in with cheese topping (although next time I will also add ~1/2 C. onion to the casserole itself). The cheese I used for the topping was a Cheddar/Monterey Jack blend (that's what I had on hand). I sprinkled Parsley on top, prior to baking, to add a little color and make it pretty. All the spices are approximate. I adjusted them to my taste prior to baking. Additionally, the rice I used was cooked with olive oil and chicken boullion, and seasoned with fresh garlic and pepper, Thanks for a quick and yummy recipe!
