Chicken Cashew Chinese Noodle Casserole image

This is a great "go-to" casserole. I've been making it for years for pot lucks, funeral collations, family get-togethers, etc. Has a lot of really good textures and tastes in it. Just add a side salad and it's a meal!

Chow mein noodles and cashews give this dish a delectable crunch. Whenever I take it to potlucks, it disappearers before my eyes. You can make the casserole and freeze it; stir in the chow mein noodles just before serving.-Marion Petersson, Wetaskiwin, Alberta
