Does anyone have a quick and easy make ahead recipe for the holiday's that I can prepare 1-2 days ahead?

Answer 1

Chicken Ritz Casserole

5-6 chicken breasts, cooked
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cheddar broccoli soup
about 1/4 soup can of milk
1-1/2 c. sour cream
2 c. cooked minute rice (1 c. prior to cooking)
dash salt and pepper
30 to 40 Ritz crackers, crumbled

Overnight Hashed Brown Potatoe Casserole

Ingredients

(8 servings)

2 lb Frozen hashed brown potatoes
1/4 lb Butter
1 pt Sour cream
1 cn Mushroom soup
8 oz Chedder cheese; shredded
1 Onion; grated
3/4 c Milk* (optional)


Instructions

Cut butter into potatoes. Mix rest of ingred. together; pour over top of potatoes. Toss. *1/4 - 3/4 c. milk can be used in place of one-half of the sour cream. It will make a moister casserole, if desired. Bake in a 13x9" pan @ 350 for 1/2 hr covered and an additional 1/2 hr. uncovered. I have used Cheddar Cheese soup, but reduce the butter as it will be greasy with both. I also put additional shredded cheese on top during the second half hour of baking. Doubles well. Can be refrigerated overnight after mixing all together.
