Ham and Chicken Casserole

This is a casserole that all my kids will eat.  Hallelujah!!!!

1 cup cooked rice
1 cup cooked Quinoa
(My family likes 1/2 and 1/2.  You could use brown rice or all white rice)
1 1/2 cups diced ham (I've used lunch meat before or if I only have one meat on hand I just use that)
1 1/2 cups cooked chopped chicken (I like to use left overs or open a can of chicken)
1 can cream of chicken soup (I used the recipe that is posted on how to make your own cream of soup.  This added the bean nutrition to my meal)
3 T butter
1/4 minced onion (I used dried from the cannery)
1/4 cup minced celery
1 can mushrooms chopped
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup milk
1/4 tsp pepper
*1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
*French fried onions

Combine all ingredients except *Swiss cheese and *french fried onions.  Place in 9x11 casserole dish.  Bake at 350 for 45 minutes covered with foil.  The last 15 minutes sprinkle the swiss cheese on and then the French fried onions over the cheese.  Bake uncovered for approx. 15 min.

This meal also freezes well.  I place the swiss cheese and french fried onions in a zip lock bag and in a separate zip lock bag I place the other ingredients that are mixed together.  I staple the two bags together and freeze.

  1. Looks like something I'll have to try. Freezer meals are always great to hear about!
