I found this in my June 2009 issue of TOH's Simple and Delicious. I am posting until I try it - recipe says it is a great freezer meal - can be frozen up to 3 months (and is $1.75 a serving according to them). :) I'll give it a whirl! **serving size is 2 casseroles, 6 servings each approx.

[email protected]This casserole was a bit too rich for my taste. I think it could have used less butter and cream. But the chicken was cooked perfectly and the potato topping was nice and crispy.
