Cheesy Veggie Chicken

There were a few extra pieces of cooked Chicken remaining after dinner on Saturday. After a quick look I realized that I would be able to cut the remaining Chicken into chunks and get about about ¾ cup. Now, that is enough of cooked Chicken to make Cheesy Veggie Chicken.

This tasty meal has few ingredients. If I have any cooked Rice in our fridge, I add it, also. Sometimes, chopped Parsley is added into the mix. Prepare this meal and place it in a Microwave safe Bake and Serve dish. My Pyrex comes in handy! Then, into the Microwave it goes. So easy and oh so good! Did I mention quick to prepare?

After attending a great lecture at the Museum of Springfield History on Sunday, this meal was so easy to prepare after returning home. The 16 oz. bag of Frozen Vegetables that I used also contained Water Chestnuts and Carrots.

Dinner was yummy!
