This mouthwatering casserole makes an excellent potluck dish. It's creamy and just bursting with flavor. A golden topping made of cornflakes and almonds offers 'crunch' appeal!—Michelle Krzmarzick, Redondo Beach, California

If anyone complains about this Almond Chicken recipe being bland or otherwise, I think they should have their taste buds checked. My family thought it was the best every and have requested it again & again.

This was awesome. I served it with butter rice. Everyone loved it, even my picky 3 year old.

I enjoyed making this and think it's a good recipe. Agree with previous comments that it needs to be put over rice and/or pasta. Also I'd saute the onions and celery to make them more tender.

We liked it alot, however way to much sauce. And I even added more mushrooms. Next time I'll cut back on the sour cream and mayo, and put it over rice or pasta. Good flavor though.

This was great! Much better than I had anticipated it being! Used reduced fat and light ingredients where available. We had it over brown rice so there was more fiber in the meal.

I thought this was excellent. It might also be good with adding about 1 tbsp. dry ranch dressing mix.

This casserole is different....no pasta as a filler. I added an extra can of mushrooms and some extra celery which I pre-cooked to crisp tender. My husband and I both love it.

Our rule in our home is never complain until you try it and make sure you criticize politely. I'll try to follow my own rules by saying, It was okay, but it's definitely not my favorite, nor will I make it again. It definitely wasn't a family favorite. My family can usually eat a typical casserole by itself (no sides) and get full. However, this does not have enough meat in it to do such a thing. It has a different texture and taste. I would describe it as an undercooked quiche. At least one of kids didn't totally refuse to finish it. That child was able to pick the meat out and eat just that.

yes, it was vinegar, all you have to do is put a little vinegar&water in the kettle, let it come to a full boil, let sit a few mins. and rinse clean.
