Monday Night Madness


Ok Girls, You're tired the kids are hungry-if you have leftover chicken or a package of the precooked strips, this is a great recipe for your family. It has been in all of the magazines this month and is a keeper. I changed the recipe from Mushroom soup to cream of chicken and added more cheese. Dinner bakes while you are shopping at http://www.shopjellybeans.com/ .


Hearty Chicken Noodle Casserole

1 can (10 3/4 ounces) Campbell's® Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup (Regular, 98% Fat Free or 25% Less Sodium)

1/2 cup milk

1 cup frozen mixed vegetables

2 cups cubed cooked chicken

1/4 of a 12-ounce package medium egg noodles (about 2 cups), cooked and drained

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 tsp. ground black pepper

1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions:
Heat the oven to 400°F. Stir the soup, milk, vegetables, chicken, noodles, Parmesan cheese and black pepper in a 1 1/2-quart casserole.
Bake for 25 minutes or until the chicken mixture is hot and bubbling. Stir the chicken mixture. Top with the cheese.
Tip: Easy casseroles like this one are a simple way to transform leftovers. Cooked chicken, turkey or ham will all work in this recipe.
Serving Suggestion: Serve with a steamed vegetable blend: broccoli, cauliflower and carrots and a Caesar salad. For dessert serve fresh strawberries topped with whipped topping.
