Hello! The Test Kitchen purchased crushed cornflakes and soup at Walmart. We suggest looking online to find the nearest store that carries these products, or to purchase online. It is possible that these products are no longer available everywhere or at all. Hope this helps!

So, this makes 24 servings???? I'm pretty sure I would still be hungry..... much higher caloric value if serving size was reasonable.

We cannot use almonds in our house, but I bet this recipe would go great with peanuts or sunflower seeds. Have you tried using other items for the crunchiness in this particular recipe? I would love some feedback on the texture and how filling the meal is if you have tried it. Thanks so much!

Some help here for an European follower please ). When do you talk about "cup" in the recipe, how much that'd be please?

Hi there! We're so glad to have you visit. We use "cup" as a method of measurement based on the United States measuring system. 1 cup is equal to about 250 milliliters. You can use a search engine to find the conversion amount to meet your measuring needs. Enjoy!

My husband said after the first mouthful YOU HAVE TO MAKE THIS AGAIN He loved it although I had to make a few adjustments because I didn't have all the ingredients but it turned out great.

I wish your recipes would not contain cream of anything soup. All those soups are loaded with MSG, which my husband is allergic to and is so bad for anyone!
