GREEN BEAN CHICKEN CASSEROLE

Green Bean Chicken Casserole image

My husband, who claims to be strictly a meat-and-potatoes man, asked for seconds the first time I threw together this comforting all-in-one meal. My daughter and several guests raved about it, too. It's easy to assemble with cooked chicken, frozen green beans and convenient pantry items. -DeLissa Mingee Warr Acres, Oklahoma
