Monday: 'Ugly' Chicken Casserole

My grandma’s favorite casserole isn’t much to look at. This is a classic “don’t judge a book by its cover” situation. What looks like a beige pile of slop is actually a wonderfully delicious (and super nostalgic) mix of modern and vintage ingredients that, when united in a 9×13-inch baking dish, result in the perfect comfort food dinner for busy weeknights.
