Creamy Baked Swiss Chicken

I love finding different chicken recipes for my family.  Normally, we grill out chicken using some type of marinate, but I came across this recipe from Lil' Luna on Pinterest and wanted to give it a try. It is fantastically reminiscent of childhood chicken baked in casserole dishes with various sauces…..nostalgia at its best. Ron, Kellen and I really liked this recipe and it was an easy weeknight meal.  I opted to serve our chicken with warm wild rice and a side salad, but it would be delicious with pasta, couscous or any grain you prefer. 

Tonight I am working on getting my final prepping done for tomorrow! We have our turkey and all the shopping has been done! Woot!  

Here is what I have on the menu tomorrow:

Fresh Veggies, olives and nuts for snacking

Herb Roasted Turkey w/ Pan Gravy
Cornbread, Sausage and Sage Stuffing
Creamy Mashed Potatoes
Homemade Cranberry Sauce (with a bit or orange and vanilla)
Cheese Beans (A Lecker staple)
Homemade Green Bean Casserole
Homemade Wisconsin Cheddar Mac and Cheese
Sweet Potatoes with Cinnamon Pecan Crumble
Burgundy Mushrooms

Ron’s parents are bringing fresh bread, pumpkin and pecan pie. 

I can’t wait to eat. It is going to be delicious!

After our meal we are heading to Appleton for bowling and relaxing with Ron’s family before heading over to my side the following day for round two! 

Happy (early) Thanksgiving everyone!
