During the holidays there are nights when you I want to relax and not spend so much time in the kitchen. Although I love to cook, spending quality time with my kids is what I cherish because they grow so fast! When it comes to cooking during the holiday I love casseroles! They are EASY to make and can be delicious, depending on what you add inside. My latest family favorite is my Creamy Chicken & Vegetable Casserole.
When I make casseroles you will almost always find vegetables inside. As a mom I try to find as many different ways to include vegetables in the meals I prepare for my family. Kids can be picky so I try to sometimes hide them and hope they won’t notice. I love vegetables and since there is times I want to save time preparing our meals, I always keep some of the Birds Eye frozen vegetables in my freezer.
Since the weather was warm this past weekend I wanted to cook something nice and warm for dinner. I thought I would make a casserole I know the family would enjoy. I used some cream of chicken, cream of celery, shredded chicken, cheese, french fried onions and the Birds Eye Steamfresh vegetables which included broccoli, carrots and cauliflower. I was happy when there was NO leftovers to put away. These are the kind of meals that matter and make my heart happy!
