One of my husband's childhood favorites: Chicken Divan. I'm sure
Campbell's web site has the recipe. We don't bake the broccoli along
with the casserole, however; we nuke it gently and serve it with the
Chicken Divan. And if the original recipe uses cream of mushroom,
we substitute cream of chicken. We work from a recipe card written
out in my mother-in-law's handwriting, so I'm not sure exactly what
the canonical recipe is.

I can't say it's good, although it's somehow hypnotic and I actually
enjoy
eating it once in a while. And it's definitely not healthful. But
you asked
what we do.

Oh, and we also sometimes do chicken and dumplings from the Joy of
Cooking, but that's no help.
