This casserole was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better with some more seasoning.

This casserole was a disaster. The rice was undercooked and the cheese was rubbery. I had to throw it away.

This casserole was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I would have liked it better with less cheese.

I'm not a big fan of turkey, but this casserole was actually really good. The cheese and rice were flavorful and the turkey was moist. I'll definitely make it again.

This casserole was just okay. I found it to be a bit bland and the rice was a little mushy. I probably won't make it again.
