"This is a terrific recipe to make when you have left over chicken. Saves a step, cuts down on the prep time and uses up that chicken."

I added about 2 cups of cooked macaroni to this along with another can of soup and some extra milk. I kept the Velveeta the same because my husband isn't a big fan of it. I stirred everything together then cooked in a 13 x 9 for 35-40 minutes. It was delicious! Very creamy and we enjoyed the corn/broccoli combo. I will make the recipe as written another time when my husband isn't requesting a "noodle casserole". Thanks for the recipe!!

This is delicious! Only changes I made were to use fresh mushrooms that I needed to use up, and a bit of diced bell peppers. This is a new favorite!!

This was wonderful. I didn't have any regular corn in the pantry. I did have creamed corn instead and used it. Very delicious. The first word my bf said was YUM after the first bite.

This recipe is very easy to assemble. I boiled my dark meat chicken in water that I had added rosemary, thyme, celery, and a touch of sage to. I omitted the corn and used a California Mix of frozen veggies (carrots, cauliflower & broccoli). I thought it was very good.

I saw this posted and decided to make it tonight. We both loved the flavor. There is a lot of sauce so I wanted some rice to go with it. Easy recipe. Next time I will keep it in mind when we have leftover rotisserie chicken.
