Courtney's Favorite Chicken Casserole

"So named by my mother, who discovered this recipe many years ago on the back of a package of noodles. It's been a family and potluck favorite ever since. Excellent comfort food!!! The fat content of this can be reduced easily by substituting low-fat soup, milk, and cheese"

  1. My family thought it was very good. Thanks!
     
  2. This was woonderful! I doubled the recipe and added just a bit of garlic salt to it (which I do to dang near everything *lol*) Comlpetely forgot the breadcrubms for the top, but will try them next time...and I can't wait for the next time! YUM!
     
  3. Wow! Delicious! My family loved it! I thought this would be great with some peas in it, but my daughter doesn't like peas, so I made some frozen peas and served them on the side, and mixed on my plate. The peas did add a nice touch if you like them.
     
  4. I thought this recipe sounded good when I read it, but a little bland for my family's taste, so I made a few changes. I sauteed up one onion, one bell pepper and one clove of garlice. Once they were softened (about 10 minutes or so) I added a 4 oz. can of sliced mushrooms, a can of diced tomatoes and 1/8 tsp. of crushed red cayenne pepper. I then added the rest of the ingredients for the sauce, before adding the noodles and chicken and baking. It turned out fabulous and was a meal all in one dish since I added the vegetables.
     
  5. Creamy and easy, but rather bland.
