Notes
When it comes to the nutrition information provided for recipes, it’s important to keep in mind that it’s just an estimate. The actual nutritional values can vary based on the specific ingredients and brands you use. Be mindful that any nutritional information provided is intended as a general guideline rather than exact values.
- If cream of onion soup isn’t available, substitute cream of mushroom or celery. I usually order cream of onion on Amazon since it’s hard to find locally.
- Swap Havarti for mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or provolone.
- Substitute ground turkey, sausage, or chicken for the beef.
- Assemble ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to bake.
