Contest-Winning Chicken Wild Rice Casserole image

While this special chicken and wild rice casserole is perfect for a company dinner, it's so good that I often make it for everyday family meals. We think it is very nice served with some crusty rolls or French bread. -Elizabeth Tokariuk, Lethbridge, Alberta

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.
