My casserole was not dry as the other reviewers have complained. It had great flavor. I couldn't find wild mushrooms, so I just used some baby bellas instead. Also, I was a little worried about the Emmentaler cheese. I tried a bite while I was shredding it and it was very odd flavor, however it was quite tasty once it was melted on the top. I chose the Emmentaler instead of the Gruyere because it was half the price. Now that I have made this dish once, I would be willing to spend a little extra and try the Gruyere too. It was a great vegetarian dish.
Excellent - and I don't like mushrooms!

I don't know what made me try this, because I do NOT like mushrooms, but I did and it was great! I added some diced chicken to the mushroom saute and it was yum-o!

so this was the perfect dish for me. you must *love* mushrooms and gruyere cheese. both are such strong flavors, and i believe my boyfriend didn't enjoy it as much as i did for that very reason. for those that said to use less noodles.. i think there may be a typo in the recipe where it says to use one pound of noodles, as most (if not all), bags i came across were 12 oz. (that is all i used) delicious!

We tried this recipe to come up with something new to use mushrooms in. Instead of wine, I just used more chicken stock, and we used a mix of Irish cheddar and Irish Gouda for our cheese. It turned out great and is now one of our family favorites! It's a great go to meal on a cold day!
Awwwwwesome!

My husband and myself couldn't get enough of this. Good thing I only made enough for the two of us with no leftovers, or he'd have eaten that at the same sitting! YUM !!!!
Wow, I had to give it 5 stars! * * * * *

User: NJ from KC, MO User Rating:
I just had to give this recipe 5 stars, mainly because my teenaged nephews ate this up and they rarely touch vegetables! After reading the reviews, I decided to reduce the amout of my egg noodles. I had a package of no yolks and I just aded half of the bag and it was still more than enough for everyone. The only cheese I had on hand was Havarti and it worked very well. We are having it again next week. This is the kind of dish that would convince me that I don't need to eat as much meat as we do, I didn't miss it at all! I can't believe that this dish is so simple and that it came from Rachael Ray! The instructions look harder than they are.
Great - with changes

LOVED this. I added some more flour to the sauce to thicken more, and mixed some cheese in with the noodles, mushrooms and sauce - awesome!! I had considered adding chopped cooked chicken, but am glad I decided against it - it didn't need it! I will definitely fix this again. I think it will reheat well, too.
Oh so yummy!

This was one of the first Rachel recipes I tried and it was absolutely delicious. Everyone had seconds (and some thirds!) I only ended up using half of the wild mushrooms because there were just so many! I would definitely NOT substitute anything else for the Gruyere cheese...it really tops off the dish perfectly. Thanks, Rachel!

Unfortunately, this came out terribly bland, even though I followed the recipe perfectly. I was a bit skeptical when I saw the recipe made on the telly, but thought I'd give it a try, considering my husband's and my love of mushrooms. I don't think I'll be making this again...ever.

This recipe is really good and not hard to cook. I always cook some chicken chunks before the other ingredients to add into the casserole to give it some protein. Relatively easy is way better than using the canned cream of mushroom soup for the casserole.

User: Julie from Greeley, CO User Rating:
We tried this for dinner last night and it received mixed reviews. I really liked it, but I absolutely LOVE mushrooms!! I broiled a couple of boneless chicken breasts, sliced them thinly and added to the creamy sauce because my husband has to have some meat in everything. After doing that, he is the one who said, "It's pretty good....if you're a Hobbit." Apparently Hobbits really like their mushrooms. Anyway, he didn't care for it much at all but I liked it....hence the three stars. Also, I only used half the amount of pasta called for and it was still way more than enough for four people. Could this possibly be a typo? Just curious.....

You really can use any kind of mushrooms that you can find. Don't stress over which mushrooms you use. Although the portabellas are a wonderful flavor. It does dirty up a few pots, but it's well worth it. Very comforting dish.

User: Brooke from Watertown, MA User Rating:
This is a great recipe for a LARGE amount of cheesy, creamy, mushroomy comfort food! I was surprised by how much this recipe actually does make - it's a lot more than I expected! The taste really is homemade - the mushroom soup taste with the fresh cream - yum! I think the taste is 5-star but gave it just four for a couple of reasons: it always seems to take a long time to prep ALL of those mushrooms, and this uses MANY dishes, boards, utensils, etc. I actually make this in two casserole dishes, so that I have one to simply reheat from the fridge.

I read the reviews before I made this. I added 2 cloves chopped garlic to each mushroom pan, and cut back the noodles to 12 oz thin egg noodles. Next time I will add crushed red pepper, but it is pretty good. Definitely taste as you go--added some salt and a lot of pepper. I didn't layer the noodles and the mushroom ragout; I mixed them together and everyone liked it!!
With Shrimp!

I added a little extra sherry and chopped raw shrimp to cook with the mushrooms...VERY YUMMY!!! Almost like a 'fondue casserole'! I was also fortunate to read reviews first and did adjust noodles/sauce, and I used bowties instead of egg...it's just what I had in the cupboard.

I'm a WW member and modified this recipe by using butter and olive oil sprays instead of olive oil and butter and fat free half and half instead of cream. I also used fat free mozzarella cheese. It still tasted good to me. The wild mushrooms are a must. Thanks Rachel because I will continue to make this one.

This was a very hearty meal. I used whole wheat egg noodles, added some garlic to my sauce and a dash of lemon pepper seasoning ? this really perked up the flavor! I only used 2 types of mushrooms as that?s all my supermarket had that day. We all loved it and the leftovers made a nice side dish. I can?t wait to try this in different variations as Rachel mentioned during the show i.e. chicken instead of mushrooms or along with the mushrooms. Try it!

It took me closer to one hour to make this dish - don't know why...it is an easy recipe. Needs more of seasoning for my taste, but will deal with that at a later date. The melted cheese (I used Baby Swiss) gave it a nice kick. Since I love mushrooms, I used more mushrooms than the recipie called for and added some morels to the ports and woodears.
This is a keeper!

I think this is one of Rachael's all-time best recipes, and I have made a lot of them. Of course, I'm a mushroom lover. The recipe makes a generous amount, so if you want it a bit creamier, I'd make the full amount of the sauce, but only cook about 3/4 of a pound of noodles. It still makes a healthy amount of food.

I love casseroles. This dish had such a complexity & depth of flavors, as well as versatile! So far I prepared this dish 4 times. All 4 times, I used RR's COMPLETE recipe w/exceptions where I added OR substituted ingredients. NO subtractions! 1st time, as RR's & I used the Gruyere. Yum! 2nd time, I used the Swiss Emmentaler cheese & did add xtra cheese to the filling. Yum__O! 3rd time - I added ricotta & spinach to RR's filling. Yum_____O! 4th time, again used RR's 'basic' recipe, I added stewing beef, substituted my HM beef stock (for Cx), substituted red for the white wine, added sour cream to the filling (No SC - substitute yogurt; cream cheese - possibility??!!), topped it off with Gruyere for a very rich, deep flavored & elegant 'Baked Stroganoff'. YUM_____________O! NEXT time I make it, I'm going to try adding green beans to RR's 'basic' recipe to replace the typical 'Green Bean Casserole' served for the holidays. Who knows what will be after that? ;)

Not only is this aromatic, but it also makes a lot!!! I used whole wheat noodles and mozz cheese...I had to add some salt at the end; I added some red pepper for Kick!

I only used 12 oz. of noodles; beware because this is comforting and filling...thanks again to Ray!
