Chicken and Wild Rice Casserole. Mrs. A. Burkart, 1st Lord of Life Cookbook, Redone.

Attempt #2
Tried to make a more "calorie friendly" version.

The revamped version goes a little something like this...

3 cups cooked brown rice
2 cups cooked chicken diced
1 10 oz can of low fat cream of chicken soup
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 cup diced celery
1/2 cup minced onion
2 cups Special K
1 tbs canola oil

Mix first 6 ingredients, place in 2 quart casserole. In a food processor put cereal (equals about 1 cup after processed) and oil. Process until cereal is evenly mixed with oil. Sprinkle on chicken and rice. Bake for 1 hour at 350.

My husband said he liked this version, but if he had his choice he'd prefer the original. I'd have to agree on that opinion. This was a good substitute... but the original was SO good, it was kinda hard to top it.
