Mix & Match Casserole
An easy yet delicious recipe. I followed the recipe, and used whatever I had on hand. Then just mixed them up, and baked in the oven until the cheese was nicely browned. I let the casserole rest for about 10 minutes, then served it. Overall a great dish.

Directions
Combine 1 (8-ounce) container sour cream, 1 cup milk, 1 cup water, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper with Sauce Maker (omit sour cream and milk when using tomatoes).
Stir in Vegetable, Pasta/Rice, Meat/Fish/Poultry, and, if desired, Extras.
Spoon into a lightly greased 13- x 9-inch baking dish .
Bake, covered, at 350℉ (180℃) F for 1 hour and 10 minutes.
Uncover and sprinkle with Toppings; bake 10 more minutes.
Invent your own one-dish combinations, switching ingredients for variety.
We stirred together the following mixtures and liked the easy preparation.
Each casserole bakes 1 hour and 20 minutes, eliminating the need to precook the pasta or rice.
