Recipe of the Week: Chicken & Rice Casserole

I love casseroles.  I'm getting in to the habit of making a few casseroles on Saturday or Sunday and them using them throughout the week.  It's wonderful and it's a habit I hope I can keep up. 

Chicken & Brown Rice Casserole

Prep Time: 5 minutes (plus time for cooking the rice)
Cook Time:  25 minutes
Servings:  5/6
WW points:  7

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces.
2 cups cooked brown rice
1 can condensed cream of chicken soup (recommend low-sodium or fat free)
7/8 cup water
mushrooms (optional)
broccoli (optional)
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp basil
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

Toss chicken with spices and place in casserole dish.  In bowl, mix other ingredients together; pour over the chicken and cover.  Bake for 20-25 minutes (until chicken is done).  Enjoy!

**NOTE:  To use a slow cooker, add all ingredients to slow cooker, chicken on the bottom, and cook on low for 4-5 hours, or until rice is tender.
