  • My grandmother made this kind of recipe during the depression--mashed potatoes layered with noodles absorb the gravy and give a different texture to the food and cost a lot less than meat. "Filling" meant more than "carbs" then. 10 lbs. of potatoes cost around $3-5 or less depending on the time of year and 16 oz. of egg noodles go for $2.39. Finally, this is a "white" sauce, not "brown," and frequently cream of chicken is used for more favor than mushro

  • Mashed potatoes and pasta? Why not one or the other? Too many carbs with both and too much work to boil potatoes and pasta. How much does this cost? Agree with other comments. Cream of chicken in a beef dish? Why not cream of mushroom?

  • You mention 2 tsp of flour in the ingredients, but it's not in the directions. When do you use the flour?

  • Sounds good, but what size meat? 1pd, 1 1/2, 2 pds??? What size sour cream?? small, medium or large. Makes a difference in the outcome of the receipe.
