We got home yesterday afternoon after a week at our lake home with our grand kids. The weather was good and those darling kids were a delight!

I had to come up with something quick and easy for dinner (no time for defrosting). Thought I would share since everyone has THOSE kind of days at some time. It's just a little different twist to an old favorite...

Country Chicken or Tuna Stroganoff Casserole

1 can cream soup of choice (we like mushroom)
1/2 cup sour cream
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 (4 oz.) can mushroom stems and pieces, drained
2 (7 oz.) cans chicken or tuna, drained and flaked
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
2 Tbsp. parsley (fresh if you have it or dry equivalent)
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. onion salt
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
3 cups cooked noodles

Combine all ingredients, mix well. Pour into 1 1/2 quart shallow baking dish (greased). Top with crushed potato chips. Bake 45 min. at 350 degrees. Top with extra grated cheese the last 15 minutes of baking.

I served this with a tossed salad and French Bread -- Couldn't be easier.

Anyway, I'm glad to be back. I was lurking from the laptop after the kids got to bed but didn't have time to post. Sounds like many of you had a lovely 4th of July Holiday also.
