Mirliton Ritz Casserole image

I enjoy cooking Cajun food, and this is more creole than Cajun. My daddy used to say that the only difference between a Cajun and a creole, was their roux.

This recipe was a bit too cheesy for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The mirliton was cooked perfectly, and the Ritz cracker topping was delicious. I would definitely make this again, but I would use less cheese.

This recipe was okay, but nothing special. I think it could have used more flavor. I might try adding some more cheese or spices next time.

I loved the idea of this recipe, but it didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. The mirliton was a bit too tough, and the Ritz cracker topping was too bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This recipe was a disaster! The mirliton was not cooked properly, and the casserole was runny. I had to throw the whole thing away.

I wasn't a fan of the mirliton in this dish. I found it to be a bit too slimy. The Ritz cracker topping was good, though.

I found this recipe to be a bit too time-consuming. It took me a long time to prepare the mirliton, and then the casserole had to bake for an hour. I think there are easier recipes out there that taste just as good.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used some more seasoning, or maybe some fresh herbs. The Ritz cracker topping was a nice touch, though.
