This is an easy dish to put together the night before and then cook in the microwave the next night for dinner. Green chilies add a distinctive flavor.

This recipe is a waste of time. It didn't turn out at all like the picture.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my casserole turned out dry and bland.

I love that this recipe is so versatile. You can add any vegetables or protein that you like. I've also made it with ground turkey instead of chicken, and it was just as good.

This casserole is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. I added some chopped carrots and celery to mine, and my kids didn't even notice.

I'm not a big fan of microwave cooking, but this recipe changed my mind. The casserole was cooked evenly and thoroughly, and it didn't taste like it had been microwaved at all.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some rotisserie chicken from the store, and it worked perfectly in this casserole. The casserole was also a hit with my kids, who are always asking for chicken nuggets. This is a healthier

I was skeptical about how a microwave casserole would turn out, but I was pleasantly surprised! The chicken was moist and tender, and the rice was fluffy and flavorful. The casserole was also really cheesy and gooey, which I loved.
