I've been making this recipe for many years. It came from a friend but I've tweaked it a bit over time. Very good comfort food and the kids have always loved it.

The casserole was easy to make, but it was a little too rich for my taste.

This casserole was a little bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.

I'm not a huge fan of asparagus, but I really enjoyed this casserole. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was creamy and flavorful. I would definitely make this again.
