Dearie, let me explain. If you search almondine you will find
recipes. If you search amandine you will also find some. Dare I say
it, there are also recipes under Chicken Almond and Almond Chicken.
Only a stubborn person would insist on your mother's recipe spelling
when most likely some mid-western farm woman had a jumped up idea of
how to make her ordinary casserole sound elegant in the church recipe
book.
I sincerely doubt that your recipe is French in origin -- not with
canned soup.
