recipe for chicken cheese casserole...

Alternately known as 'canned goods casserole' found in Mom's Majik Mox that arrived in TN on Friday.

Quick and Easy Chicken/Rice Casserole

1/2 large onion (I used Lots more!) and/or diced celery/bell pepper
2 T. butter
1(6 to 10 oz.) can white meat chicken
! can chicken broth
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheeze
1 c. rice
pepper to taste (1/2 to 1/4 tsp.)

Cook onion (and other veg. if desired) in butter in microwave for 1 min. on high.
In medium casserole dish, put can of chicken (undrained), stir to separate chunks.
Stir in other ingredients. Bake 350 at least 30 min., until rice is done. Stir before serving.

Some people do not like celery, and comment in the addition/inclusion with great enthusiasm. I'm always looking for more vegetables on my fork, so I would certainly add extra of the onions, celery and some diced bell pepper would be good... or shredded carrots if you want to make it colorful. Factor in, Me: the person who was always smuggling vegetables into things, where ever it might be sufficiently disguised to be consumed by the people who adamantly oppose consuming vegetables in any form. How about adding in some of that prolifically reproducing zucchini - shredded, to sort of, possibly, vaguely look like ... noodles? pasta?
