Hmmm - that even looks like something I'd eat, and I'm pretty picky. Looks good!!!
This recipe looks good ( and easy )
=)
Thanks so much for sharing!
You do not have Cream of chicken soup in the ingredient list is it included in your points plus calculation? Just wanted to verify.
Dana - The Ingredients called for 2 cups cream of mushroom soup. However, when I made this I only had 1 can of cream of mushroom soup so, I used 1 can of cream of chicken to make two cans. I did the pointsplus values based off of the 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup, like the recipe says. Thanks for your questions!
Thank you for clearing that up for me. Can't wait to try it.
don't you have to cook the chicken?
I did not cook the chicken in advance. I let it cook all together in the oven.
It's hard to believe a casserole this delicious looking could be so low in points. Wonderful!
oooooh adding this to my list of things to make soon. Thinkin I will toss in some peas or broccoli too.....
I am making this for dinner tonight :) Subbing one can of cream of broccoli and adding shredded broccoli. I can't wait!
Yummy! This looks really good :) (and YAY you don't have to cook the chicken ahead of time! Makes it even easier!) I would love to sub in broccoli like PP's and maybe some Sun-dried tomatoes, YUM! Husband will love this. Thanks for sharing!
Can this be frozen and used at a later time. As a freezer meal?
Anonymous - I have never tried to freeze this meal and save it for later. If you try it, please let me know how it turns out.
Do you know the calorie count?
Anonymous - I do not know the calorie count for this recipe.
I cooked mine for 40 min covered at 350 and when I uncovered it, my chicken was raw. Put it back in for longer. My pieces looked about the same size as your picture. Any suggestions?
would you say 1 serving is about 1 cup?
Anonymous - I am not sure why your chicken didn't cook all the way. You can always feel free to cook the chicken first, before you put it in the bottom of the pan.
I think a serving is about 1 cup.
I just made this tonight, and it was fantastic!!! Thanks for the great find
Is this about a cup, per serving?
Made this tonight and it was a big hit! Mine turned out a little soupier than the picture, but otherwise it was great! I also used one can of each soup and when I calculated the points it was still 6 points/serving. I did cook the chicken prior to layering the casserole and I used rigatoni pasta. Will be making this again!
Have you tried this with your SOS cream soup alternative?
