Tips, Tricks & FAQs
Yes – of course!! Both would be great – I’ve also used canned ham or canned tuna!
Yes – I’m personally addicted to mushrooms – so they go in everything. But this would be just as good with green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, etc. If you have leftovers from dinner – just throw them in! Or half a bag from the freezer!
Sure – again – I just love them! I eat half the can as soon as I open it! But yes – if you’re not a fan – you could top with crushed chips, breadcrumbs or nothing at all.
Yup! You can use any shape of egg noodle or even macaroni, bowtie, etc. Whatever you like!
