Chicken Cashew Casserole

Took this dish to a church Christmas dinner and got a few requests for the recipe so I thought I'd share it here.

Chicken Cashew Casserole

1 cup diced celery
1/3 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup diced green pepper
1 T. butter
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup milk
2 cups diced, cooked chicken
1 cup salted cashews
13 oz. chow mein noodles

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Saute celery, onion and green pepper in butter. In a bowl, mix soup and milk. Add sauteed veggies and chicken. Add cashews and half of the chow mein noodles. Put into baking dish. Bake for 25 minutes. Top with remaining chow mein noodles and return to oven for 5 min.

Amy's Southwestern Chicken Lasagna

I went to Houston, TX to visit my sister last week and ate some very yummy Southwestern Chicken Lasagna in a little cafe there.
