Poppy Seed Chicken Casserole


This a fun recipe I learned on the Internet about 10 years ago. You need buttery crackers like Ritz, cream of chicken soup, chicken, sour cream and poppy seeds. Dice the raw or cooked chicken and put it in a casserole dish. Mix in the can of cram of chicken soup and a heaping spoonful or two of cour cream. Then crush a lot of buttery crackers and mix in between one and two tablespoons of poppy seeds. Sprinkle the crackers on top and bake in the over at 400 degrees for 30-45 minutes.


My 8 year old made this for dinner tonight it our family favorite.
