Tasty Recipe for Using a Hen, Member Geodie

Came across this recipe for using a hen and decided to try it. I used egg noodles. I decreased the amount of cheese. A pound seemed like a lot. I used 8 oz. and instead of dicing, I grated it. The list of ingredients did not include mushrooms, but the directions indicated adding mushrooms with the tomatoes. I added 2- 4 oz. cans of drained, sliced mushrooms and that seemed adequate. The casserole itself is very tasty and serves more than 6. Will definitely make again. Would be good for a pot luck.
