First time, followed recipe. Love it. Second time, substituted ground turkey and added a little poultry spice. Third time, substituted diced chicken and added thawed mixed vegetables. All delicious and easy. Read More

I made this with some revisions but in keeping with the spirit of the recipe. I used boneless skinless chicken breasts because that's what I had. Per other reviewers, I increased the milk by 1/2 cup and used a whole box of stuffing mix. Also, I added 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables and 1/2 tsp poultry seasoning. Lastly, I put the Tots ON TOP because IMO that's a requirement for a hotdish. The result was hearty and tasty. This goes into my keeper file. BTW, it took 1 hour, 50 minutes from start to table; but maybe I'm just a slow prepper. Read More

Family loved it, even my picky kid. I used a full box of stove top and increased the milk to 1.5 cups. Also used tasteful simple dried onions & garlic instead of fresh. Turned out great Read More

Made as written and this turned out good for me. The stuffing mix gave it a uniqueness from others I have tried. I do think it needed more milk but that is the only change I would make. Thanks for sharing! Read More
