This is yummy. I used Recipe #278160 instead of canned soup abd tuna instead of ham to feed a fish craving. I also used ff cream cheese and 2% cheddar, and I was impressed with how rich it still tasted! I saved about 1/3 c cheese to sprinkle on top before baking, too. Good stuff--thanks for posting!
