Chicken Stuffing Bake
It *may* be wishful thinking on my end, but I think fall is here! It’s been cool and rainy here in Kentucky the past few days, leaves are just barely starting to turn, I have a gingerbread candle burning, and a bushel of apples in my kitchen–ready to be peeled. There is nothing more I could want to get ready for my favorite season except maybe a helping of this hearty Chicken Stuffing Bake.

My chicken and stuffing bake is similar – http://www.savingyoudinero.com/2009/06/30/chicken-and-stuffing-bake/
This recipe sounds good too – I will have to try it.
I follow the recipe on the box of the Stove Top’s Chicken flavored stuffing … it’s similar and soooo good! I skip adding the tomatoes and serve it with noodles and a veggie! Family FAVORITE!
I make mine with turkey cutlets and also add half a can of the whole-berry cranberry sauce, chopped celery, and diced mushrooms. It’s been a while, though… Might be time to make it again.
Mmmmm, that sounds so good!!
We do a similar version. We add deli ham slices on top of chicken. Then, we add a tablespoon of dijon mustard to the cream of chicken soup, and bake as above. We top with sliced swiss cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking.
We’ve served this to our post-partum and post-op friendsand always always get rave reviews and requests for the recipe. It freezes very well also.
Mmmm, that sounds like a recipe I have for Chicken Cordon Bleu Bake!! Love that you give it to your friends! Freezer meals are the BEST for that.
We made this last night and it was SO yummy! Blogged about it! Definitely recommend.
What can I use instead of Cream of Chicken soup??? I need to make it dairy-free. But it sounds so good!
Carolyn, you can try this:
Omit the milk in the receipe and then instead of using the condensed soup, and add the dairy-free homemade version of the soup: http://vegetarian.about.com/od/soupsstewsandchili/r/veganmushroom.htm (but use chicken instead of mushroom, although I’m sure mushroom would be good too!).
Hope that helps.
We call that Thanksgiving casserole in my house since the first time I threw it together was with leftover Thanksgiving dinner. Since then I have had to make my apple onion cranberry stuffing of doom everytime I roast a turkey just for the casserole.
That stuffing sounds really good!! I often make it with leftover Thanksgiving or Christmas turkey too!!
This was an all around winner! It was economical, easy to make & most of all DELICIOUS! All 7 of us loved it and there were no leftovers. This is definitely going on our regular schedule of recipes. Thank you for sharing this with us!
That’s great to hear! Thanks for the feedback!

My family LOVED this dish! The stuffing reminded me of the big holiday get-togethers from when I was a child, and DH had thirds. Super easy too! Will definitely make again.
