I don't know where this casserole originated, but the recipe was given to me some 40 years ago. It's my family's all-time favorite. Not only is it a great "company" meal, it's also well-received at potluck dinners. -Johnie Mae Barber, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

This casserole was easy to make and turned out great! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked perfectly. The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the vegetables were tender. I served it over rice and it was a hit with my family.

This casserole was a disappointment. The chicken was dry and tough, and the sauce was bland. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This casserole was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and herbs and it was much better. The chicken was tender and the vegetables were cooked well, but the sauce was a little thin.

This was a great recipe! I used chicken thighs instead of breasts and it was still very moist. The sauce was delicious and the vegetables were cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of casseroles, but this one was surprisingly good. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was creamy and flavorful. I also liked the addition of the vegetables. They added a nice crunch and texture to the dish.
