My husband is not a casserole lover, but this creamy, cheesy dish is one of his favorites! Nutmeg gives it a wonderful, different taste. As a busy mother with three young sons, I put this easy recipe to good use. —Kelly Heusmann, Cincinnati, Ohio

I used an almond raisin wine to cook my chicken, and then again in my sauce. It gave this dish an excellent flavor. I think it paired well with the nutmeg. This was a wonderful casserole!
