This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

The casserole was a bit dry. I think I should have added more butter or cream.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices and herbs to give it more flavor.

This casserole was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of maple syrup next time.
