Recipe: Creamed Chicken with Mushrooms

If you’re looking for another dish for your food buffet or just looking for another way to make a delicious meal for your family… this may fit the bill. Serve this with rice or noodles and a side salad… this is absolutely wonderful.

This recipe makes 4 entire servings… it can easily be adjusted for less or more servings. Halving the recipe makes a terrific meal for two.

Making it for a crowd?…or adding this to a buffet of other items….just double it… remember if adding it to a buffet that has an assortment of other entrees, you can safely assume each serving will serve two people…

What is nice about this recipe is that it can be made ahead and reheated and since you are serving this with rice or noodles you can choose another dish that also goes well with rice or noodles…. Swedish meatballs, Beef Stroganoff, Scallops or Shrimp Scampi, and Pepper Steak Meatballs… to name a few.

Bon Appetit!
