Chicken Apple Casserole image

This recipe was inspired one evening when concocting homemade baby food for my son. After sampling a chicken and apple blend- I thought why haven't I ever eaten these two together before? This recipe adds ginger for a zesty compliment to the sweetness of the apples, along with a medley of other 'sweet' veggies. Low fat, healthy and delicious.

This casserole was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think it would be better with less apples. The chicken was also a bit dry. I wouldn't make this again.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning. The chicken was also a bit dry. I wouldn't make this again.
