Thank you for a really yummy chicken casserole recipe!  I did make a few changes but the basic recipe is a wonderful foundation!  I cooked brown rice separately.  I added fresh chopped mushrooms & used red bell peppers in place of pimiento because I didn’t have pimiento.  I like the fresh red bell pepper but I will try the pimiento when I have some!  I used frozen petite peas instead of green beans.  I omitted the bacon and mixed in some shredded low-fat Mozzarella.  It was good enough to get on my  recipes “Keepers” list!

<p>Well, I wonder if the amount of pepper was a misprint? 1t was way too much.  Otherwise loved the crunch of almonds. Probably will have to toss the leftovers which is too bad given the cost of good these days. </p>

We have been making this for years now ever since we saw it in one of the taste of home mags.Everyone just loves it.

Very tasty - tastes like it has a higher fat content than it does. Would definitely make this again.

added celery and carrots with the onions.  Added sherry to the soup

This was really simple and very filling.  A great way to use rotisserie chicken to speed things up on busy weeknights. The only sub I made was sliced up sweet red pepper for pimentos since that's what I had on hand. Delicious! Family liked it!

Made as it except omitted the bacon.  .   If I were to add bacon it would be more than 1 strip.  Great tasting recipe.  Love the almonds

Did not care for this dish at all. Had a very funny taste too it.

My husband and I thought we would really like this, however, neither of us liked the flavor of it at all.  I will not be making this again and I honestly do not understand the high rating!

I made this recipe using a 4.5 oz. box of white and wild rice, not a 6 oz. like stated in the recipe. I used less cooking liquid. I used peas in place green beans ( should have used carrots too for color), omitted pimentos, bacon, and almonds. I didn't bake this either, just made it all on the stove. My boxed rice flavor packet was very salty so it's a great thing that I used low sodium chicken broth (I'll use water next time since it's really a waste to use broth) and 'healthy request' soup mix. Will definitely make again.
