The ultimate comfort food! This is so easy to make and is delicious. I didn't have any cheese soup on hand so I made some by using about 1 cup of milk with about 1/2 cup of velveeta. I microwaved that for about 30 seconds, stirred it and added that in place of the canned soup. It came out great - thanks for posting! -
Wow. Just made this! it was very simple and soooooo delicious. My husband absolutely loved it. I did add some garlic. Very Yummy! -
My husband and I really enjoyed this. All the chopping was a little time consuming but worth it. I think next time I might add a little more broth or soup to give it a little more sauce. I would make this again in a heartbeat and I still have some left over, yummmm. -
Very nice! Easy to prepare, doesn't take long at all! If I were to make this again, I would definitely decrease the onion I use. I think I just got a really strong onion and it gave me a bit of indigestion. Also, next time I will remember to make this is a wider dish. I used a deeper but smaller casserole and it was still cold in the middle when it came out. Thank goodness for microwaves! It reheated very very well the next day too! Thanks ChefV! -
This was the perfect dinner for us last night. It was very easy to prepare in my exhausted state from working in the yard all day and big enough to feed all the hungry men that were hauling our trees away. I had left over sauteed onion, red & yellow & green bell peppers from the night before so I added that mixture to the seasoned chicken I sauteed for the casserole. This would be a great recipe to use a deli chicken. Everyone loved it!!! Thanks V!!!!

I don't think there's anything better than spending time with family and friends and enjoying delicious food together. I just love food. I love reading about food, writing about food, cooking food and.. not surprisingly, eating food. My latest passion is food-photography! I'm still learning a lot, but I'm trying to post photos with all my recipes and reviews. I read recipe books, magazines and food blogs like novels. I get such satisfaction when someone enjoys a meal or dessert that I have prepared. It is the biggest compliment to me when my family and friends rave about my cooking. There are so many terrific recipes on this site. If I'm looking for something, I'm sure to find it here. I do have stacks of my own favorite recipes which I am slowly but surely getting in my cookbooks here . I have had so many awesome reviews and fabulous photos taken of my recipes... I try to thank everyone personally .. I sincerely appreciate each and every review and or comment left. I know it takes time to photograph and upload photos - So I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for finding and trying my recipes and taking the extra effort...
