REVIEWS:

I enjoyed this dish. I thought of had good flavor. I will however either make it with shredded chicken or leftover chicken.

This recipe appealed to me because I had left over chicken breast to use up and both red and green peppers on hand. Husband wasn't too thrilled (had requested pork chops) until he tasted it! He declared this a "keeper" recipe.

Made this to take as a meal for a friend who just had a baby. Our family really enjoyed it as well. Doubled easily. Very tasty. Classic "comfort food." I used the meat from a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store. Gave it lots of flavor.

We didn't care much for this. It didn't have a lot of flavor to it.

This is an easy and delicious casserole!! My family really raved about this..Next time I will only use half the noodles or make a little more of the chicken soup/mayo mixture. :)

This was super great!!, I made it as is except I didn't have any red pepper in the fridge and I only used half the amount of noodles. In the future I would maybe put some mushrooms in there, or you could add frozen peas and some definitely add the red pepper!

I initially made this for one of my husband's co-workers whose wife was in the hospital. I wanted something that looked as though it would freeze and reheat well. It smelled so good when i was cooking it for him, I knew I had to make it for us. My husband and I both loved it. This is the first dish in a long time that I can remember my husband asking if he could take the leftovers to work for lunch the next day. Then, he came home and wanted to know if he could have the leftovers for dinner, too! Unfortunately, I had already eaten the last of it for lunch myself! This is a really good, simple recipe! It will definitely go into our regular rotation.

I took this to a homebound couple and they loved it! This is definitely a keeper.

Just finished making this and I thought it was wonderful. I did substitute green chiles for the green pepper but left the rest as the recipe stated. DELICIOUS! Finally a comforting chicken noodle casserole with flavor. Thanks.

We have made this several times and even the kids like it! A++++

a great leftover recipe! this is not an "oh well, at least those leftovers are gone" recipe, it's a "yeah! we have chicken left!" recipe. will definately make again and again.

This is a great recipe! We loved the flavor and the creamy consistency. I used leftover chicken from "Herbed Chicken Breasts" from Simple & Delicious submitted by Mary Kay Dixon from Catlin, Illinois. This added another special hint of flavor! We will have this again!

This is one of the BEST casseroles I have ever eaten. I receive so many compliments when I serve this, everybody wants the recipe. It is easy to make, and very filling.

I added 2 cups of fresh cauliflower instead of the peppers. I also sauted the onions in fresh minced garlic before adding them. It turned out yummy!
