Yummy Casserole Dishes

I have a great one dish wonder. All you need is rice, cream of chicken soup, canned or boiled chicken(if you want more meat chunks) and a few drops of lemon juice to suit your taste. Just boil as much rice as you want then add the soup and chicken. Measurements all depend on how much you are making and how thick you want it to be. I add the soup in first and then water til its the consistency we like, to each their own. Once heated add some lemon juice, it doesnt make it sour just bumps it up a knotch. My 6yr old and toddler LOVE this and its quick and easy. Hope it helps.

How about Mexican Lasagna? It is basically a layer casserole. Use flour or corn tortillas (your choice), and layer them with refried beans, taco meat, cheese, olives, onions, and salsa (not a really runny one--Pace works well). Keep layering until you reach the top of the pan, and then make the final layer cheese. Bake at about 375 until golden and bubbly.

Chicken Enchilada Casserole -- nothing like real enchiladas, but sooo good!
ingredients:
3-4 chicken breasts
1/2 onion
4-5 celery sticks
1 can chicken broth
1 can corn
1c (about) salsa
cornstarch
1 can green chilis
cheddar cheese (grated)
1 box cornbread mix

about 1c salsa
Take about 3-4 chicken breasts cubed and boil in 1 can of chicken broth (you can add pepper or other spices if you want)
add in about half an onion diced and about 4-5 celery sticks diced
**these are guesses because i never measurer!
boil that until chicken is fully cooked and the onion and celery are a little soft.
Add 1 can of corn and about a cup of salsa (more or less to taste)
simmer for a few min
mix 1 tsp cornstarch with COLD water (so it doesn’t create lumps) and then add to the pot to help thicken
Pour content into 13x9 baking dish and top with 1 can diced green chili’s and cheddar cheese to taste
Prepare 1 box corn bread mix according to directions and then pour over casserole. (it won't look like it covers everything, but once cooked it will spread).
Bake at 425 uncovered for about 30 min or until brown and bubbly
let it rest so that its not too soupy.
