I'm not a fan of mushrooms, so I omitted them from the recipe. The casserole was still delicious.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I substituted the milk and cheese with almond milk and vegan cheese. It turned out great!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my casserole turned out dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper, and it was much better.
