This chicken casserole with rice is a recipe I made up when my husband and I were first married. It is now a family favorite. My son Ian has it every year on his birthday.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra seasoning and it was much better. The chicken was cooked well, but the rice was a bit mushy.

This was a delicious and easy weeknight meal. I used brown rice instead of white rice and it turned out great. The chicken was moist and flavorful. My husband and kids loved it.

I'm not a huge fan of chicken casserole, but this recipe changed my mind. It was creamy, cheesy, and flavorful. The rice was cooked perfectly and the chicken was tender. I'll definitely be making this again.
