January has flown by even with all the rainy and sunless days. It is during months like these that a warm casserole, a hot cup of tea, a good book or binging a T.V. series makes myself and many others happy. Growing up in a family of seven required many casserole dinners to make the food go farther. One of the family favorites was Three Cheese Chicken Casserole. My mother would cook a whole hen and then create this family favorite as it would provide leftovers. I used this same casserole when our children were at home as I could also create a second meal of Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup. I hope your family enjoys this recipe as much as we do! Bon Appetit!
