Food For Friday...

Casseroles... don't you just love them? I sure do! I especially like the ones that are a little bit different. This recipe is definitely one of my all-time favorites. The first time I made this was shortly after Steve and I got married. It quickly became a keeper. What I like about it this casserole is that it isn't your typical "chicken casserole". Hope you enjoy it too!


WILD CHICKEN~

6 oz. wild rice
1 c. chicken broth
10 oz. french-style green beans
2 c. cubed, cooked chicken
1 can cream of celery soup
1/2 c. mayo
1 can water chestnuts, drained
1 can french fried onions

Prepare rice, substituting broth for 1 c. water. Combine all ingredients. Place in casserole dish. Top with onions. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

How easy is that!!!

When I have this casserole I usually will have a spinach salad with Craisins, feta cheese, almonds, and red onion. Drizzle it with some raspberry balsamic dressing, or Ken's Steakhouse Vidalia Onion dressing and you have a delicious salad. Add some rolls and dinner is ready!
