Chicken Casserole
Chicken Casserole is such a great way to use up leftover chicken and vegetables. After the holidays you can usually find cream of something soup on sale: I usually buy the cream of mushroom or celery. Any type is fine for this recipe. You might even consider making your own. Food writer Julie McGuire has a good recipe Substitute for Cream Soup.
The following recipe is definitely meant to be a guide. You can alter the amount of chicken, rice and vegetables.

those meatballs look so yummy. Do you make lignonberry sauce, or buy it?
ReplyDeleteI've always bought lignonberry sauce in a gourmet shop. I've never seen real lignonberries. They are native to Scandinavia and I don't know if they are grown anywhere in this country.
