Notes
*an easy way to cook boneless chicken is to put it in a sauce pan with enough chicken broth to cover. Bring to a boil then cover pan and turn burner off. Let chicken sit in the covered pan on the stove top for 30 minutes. Remove from broth and chop or shred. If chicken isn't quite done, it will continue to cook when casserole is baked
