For those of you complaining about the nutrition value of this, no one said you had to make it. What gives you the right to comment on something that never claimed to be the greatest for you healthwise. Just because you can't eat it doesn't mean it's not good! And I agree with the others. If you have that restricted of a diet, then you should know how to slim down a recipe by now.

I really enjoyed this recipe. I made changes to it to fit our likings. I left out the celery, rice, water chestnuts, and almonds but it still was delicious. We will definitely make this again!

This is a great recipe. I have made it for years. (I'm a 60 year cook) We also called it Chicken Casserole Crunch, and it is rich. To me, too much changing changes the whole taste. Eat smaller helpings instead. like moo333. She has the right idea. Thanks for sharing your recipe. cjyaro

This was suchan interesting combination of flavors. I subsituted fat free sour cream in place of mayo. Also subbed the healthy request cream of chicken soup. I used half the amount of butter, and used brown rice. My version was excellent and only 350 calories!! Thanks so much for the recipe!

I subscribe to all TOC magazines. Just because a recipe calls for a certain ingredient doesn't mean I HAVE to put it in there. Recipes are a GREAT way to learn and get ideas as to what fits your lifestyle. I would rather have great ideas then to stare at the frig night after night saying "What's for dinner?"

Correction: Just add Mrs. Dash and pepper to enhance the flavor without increasing the sodium content .
I am a Registered DIetitian and to cut the fat and calories you could substitute either no fat sour cream or plain yogurt. The plain yogurt would lower the calories and fat the most. In addition, you may need to add some Chicken powder-chicken seasoning,Mrs. Dash or Salt and pepper to enhance the flavor.

Thank you cwbuff!!! I lost 3 dress sizes in 2 years just by eating smaller portions, and not eating after 7:00 p.m. I've kept my weight off now for 1-1/2 years, and I eat whatever I want (still losing weight), which includes meals like my grandmother used to cook. I had a portion of this casserole for dinner, it filled me up, and I had enough to share with a friend and have leftovers for the next day, which I might add tasted just as good - my friend thoroughly enjoyed it too! Thank you Taste of Home for printing the "old fashioned recipes;" that's why I purchase your magazines and your cookbooks. When I find a “light†recipe, I change it to what I prefer, still eat my fruit and vegetables, but have flavorful and satisfying meals with no aftertaste.

I haven't tried it yet..but I'm wondering if the calorie and fat stats are correct. That seems like too much given the ingredients. Misprint maybe? I will still try it though. Happy Holidays!
