One of the ladies my mother used to play tennis with made this for my baby shower 8 years ago and I never got a chance to ask for the recipe (I was 8 months pregnant and a little overwhelmed) Anyway when I looked thru all the other recipes but they didn't sound right. I found this one so I tried it and it is exactly the one I was looking for! Excellent!! So yummy! Thank you!

Juenessa, this was total comfort food! My husband had a basketball game last night and I put the kids to bed early and had a nice quiet dinner alone with this yummy casserole...just what I needed. I used canned chicken and celery flakes, which made it sooooo easy to throw together. I loved the almonds in this. I think I used too many chips, it got a little greasy, but I didn't measure, I just crushed and sprinkled! My husband was eating it out of the bowl before i baked it and said it would be great just like that on sandwiches, so I'll have to try that for him. I can see why it's a family favorite, it will become one of ours too. THANKS!!
