Family Favorite Chicken Casserole

I made our family's favorite chicken casserole last night:

Cooked, diced chicken (I used half of a roasted chicken I bought from the deli)

1 can cream of mushroom soup

1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

2 boxes frozen chopped broccoli

1 box Uncle Ben's Original Wild Rice

1 8oz container sour cream (I don't put in quite all the container)

Cook rice per instructions on box. Cook broccoli in microwave per instructions on box. Mix all ingredients together (except 1/2 cup cheese) and place in casserole dish. Top with 1/2 cup cheese. Cook at 350F for about 30 minutes or until everything is nice and hot and bubbly. Great with a salad. Easy, inexpensive, and yummy.

Favorite Chicken Pot Pie Recipe

I made Easy Chicken Pot Pie tonight. My family loves it!

Chicken, cooked, diced into bite sized pieces. (2-3 cups)

3/4 Stick butter (not margarine)

6 tablespoons flour

2 cups chicken broth

1 cup heavy cream

Salt & Pepper

1 bag Pictsweet Seasoned Garden Vegetables, cooked in microwave

1 Pillsbury pie crust

Melt butter in saucepan. Add flour and stir over heat until thick (about 2 minutes.) Slowly add chicken broth while stirring. Slowly add cream while stirring. Add salt and pepper to taste. Continue cooking (and stirring) until sauce thickens. Place vegetables and chicken in casserole. Pour sauce over top and mix well. Unroll crust and lay on top of casserole, pinching edges to secure to casserole dish. Cut vents in crust. Bake 12 to 15 minutes at 450 F until crust is brown.

I actually used left over KFC chicken. I think turkey or ham would be good, too. Great with salad!
