This Green Bean Chicken Casserole recipe contains cubed cooked chicken, long grain and wild rice, colby cheese, frozen french-style green beans, cream of broccoli soup and more.
Using lowfat cheese and soups, this creamy baked chicken will fool everyone who thinks richness always equals high fat. This recipe expands easily to serve a crowd.
This is NOT your usual plain green bean casserole. This is a recipe that started with my great-aunt and has been passed around our family for years. People tasting it for the first time ALWAYS want the recipe!
Meatballs of ground beef mixed with onion and dry cream of wheat are baked for 20 minutes, combined in a casserole with condensed cream soups and evaporated milk, and baked another 40 minutes.
To a slow cooker chicken, I added an old family noodle recipe. If you want it to be more like a soup, add another quart of broth. This was a fixture at family reunions when I was a child, and the slow cooker makes it even easier.
