This will definitely make it into our regular rotation. I used 1 lb of turkey sausage and divided it into six servings to reduce the calories per serving and stretch it a little further. I also subbed celery for the mushrooms (I cooked the celery with the onions), because my SO doesn't like mushrooms. I used small Yukon Gold potatoes and sliced them in 1/4 in thick rounds, since the other reviews mentioned that the potatoes didn't fully cook. And to eliminate some of the extra broth, I only covered it for 15 min during the baking time. There was still some extra broth, but not too much--just enough to keep the leftovers moist. And I added fresh rosemary and sage (but used dried thyme because fresh thyme is such a pain), which definitely kicked up the flavor. I also added the cheese after it was fully cooked and put it back in the oven just long enough to melt it.
