   Yum! I knew this would be good, but MAN, was it GOOD. I couldn’t stop eating it! I made my own recipe meatballs and used canned sauce, which next time I will use my homemade sauce. I loved the cream cheese layer of the casserole. SO tasty! Can’t wait to make this again!

   Did not like it. I toasted the bread first like people suggested and it still was soggy. I forgot to put it in the fridge and the next morning I wasn’t to mad to find it on my counter and throw it away.
