Cheese Chicken from Leftovers

This is a way to use up leftover chicken. My mom started making this before cream of mushroom soup became a bit hit for fast meals. She uses left over chicken to make what she calls cheese chicken.

Ingredients and Directions

Just take ANY left over chicken, shred it, dice it or whatever you want (if it has skin remove it.) Add a few cans of cream of mushroom soup, and warm it up. Add a bit of velveeta cheese melted into it and pour over rice. VOILA - a super quick dinner that the kids LOVE and it's so easy! If my mom is craving this, she'll just buy 2 already cooked chicken breasts at the store and go from there.

Maureen : Thanks for this easy idea. I needed ideas for using up cooked chicken. Since mushroom soup is pretty concentrated and rich, do you thin it a bit with water or milk? Have you added any extra spices of yr own?
