Chicken and Green Bean Casserole

I posted the microwave version of this casserole on 11/4/08 and while making it yesterday for our dinner, I decided to get a picture of it and post the traditional version of preparation for those cooks like myself who prefer traditional cooking methods. I love my microwave but, I would much rather cook using the stove or the oven. So, here's an update of one of our favorite casseroles, served here with broccoli and cheese sauce and a new yam recipe. I'll post the easy cheese sauce and yam recipes at a later date. Blessings...

Recipe:

1 (10-3/4 oz.) can 98% fat-free cream of mushroom soup (see note)
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (1-3/4 oz)
1/3 cup chicken broth, 99% fat-free
1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1-1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken or turkey
1 (14.5 oz. can cut green beans, drained (1-3/4 cups, if you would like to use fresh that have been cooked.)
6 servings instant mashed potatoes prepared according to pkg. directions or 3 cups mashed potatoes made with 1 tbsp. butter and low-fat milk. Salt to taste.
1/2 cup french fried onion rings

1. In a saucepan, combine soup, cheese, chicken broth and Worcestershire sauce. Heat and stir over low heat until cheese is melted.
2. Stir in chicken and green beans; pour into 2 qt. casserole. Top with mashed potatoes.
3. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes or until heated through.
4. Top with french fried onions and return to oven for about 5 minutes to brown the onions.

Yield: 7-1/2 cups
Note: Cream of Mushroom Soup with Roasted Garlic is also good.
