Absolutely delicious! The left overs lasted about an hour before my boyfriend ate them!

I didn't add the ham or swiss, just cheddar and it was like a pot pie with a stuffing top. Very good but cook longer if you don't cook the chicken first. I just threw it all together and baked it.

I used lima beans (only thing left in the freezer!) and cubed ham. I also tossed much of it together without measuring. Wonderful mixture!

Easy and delicious dish! I added a little milk to the soup, thinking it was too dry, but didn't need it. I sauteed onions, garlic & green peppers with the chicken for flavor. Next time I would double the bread crumb topping.
