Amy's Chicken Casserole
"The original recipe came from my Aunt Debbie, and it used ham. I use canned chicken for convenience, but you could use any leftover cooked chicken. The french fried onions are what makes you go back for another bowl, use more or less to suit your taste! Use whole wheat noodles to make it a lil' healthier. I also like to coat my casserole dish with cooking spray to make clean up easier. This is a great dish for potlucks too."

Comfort food at it's best! Thanks for a great recipe! Even my picky kids ate it! I did change it a bit...I used a whole bag of no yolk egg noodles instead of 9 ounces, 1 can of cream of celery soup and 1 can of cream of chicken soup and I used 15 ounces of canned chicken (1: 10 ounce can and 1:5 ounce can). Next time I think I would add a few more of the fried onions, but my DH said why mess with perfection! Thanks again for posting!

Hello, I'm the mom of 2 freakishly opposite daughters, one who will eat anything I put in front of her, and one who sustains herself with potato chips & Eggo waffles. I work at an elementary school in a first grade general-ed classroom with an autistic boy. As you can imagine, everyday is a new adventure...some more fun than others!
I love to cook, sew, and make things out of recycled stuff. I can recycle just about anything. We grow a garden in the summer, so that keeps me pretty busy.
I rarely measure ingredients -except for when baking - which annoys people when they ask me how to make a dish. I like to try new foods and will morph a recipe to fit what I have in the fridge or pantry.
I hope I can in time put my recipes into here and that people enjoy them.
