***Next time I make this, I'll probably mix in the beans and rice with the chicken mixture just to make everything a little more moist before putting it in the pan and topping it with cheese. I'd also switch out the diced tomatoes for a 1/2 cup of salsa.

Okay I have almost the same recipe as this, but mine had a can or two of cream of chicken soup in it- it is so moist and creamy that way. Of course it's not as healthy, but it is really really good. I always double the recipe so one of the pans can sit in the fridge overnight.. That's the best way to have it, I think. Soaks up the juices. Good work Katie on starting us off!
