I use 1 1/2 cups cream & 3 eggs, skip the paprika & dill, substitute thyme. The casserole sets up better and everyone raves how good it is. I cook this dish for the holidays and it's a hit. The dill & paprika do clash but using just thyme seems to work.

I made this last Christmas for a potluck and was asked to repeat it again.

Something seems off with this recipe: only 2 eggs and 1cup of cream for a 9 1/2 x 11 casserole? Also, the egg mixture didn't set up after baking it according to directions. Now I'm frustrated and hungry...
