Questions & Reviews

Laura @ Lauras Baking Talent says:

This looks delicious! Thanks for sharing :)

Dixie says:

This sounds a great deal like a recipe from my childhood (LONG ago) but of course, without yogurt - we didn't know what that was in the old days! Can't wait to try it!

Judy says:

This is really great with turkey also. :)

Dawn Meehan says:

Could you change this so it would cook in a crockpot?

Cyd says:

Hi Dawn, I'm sure you could prepare this in a slow cooker. The temperatures of every crock pot vary slightly. You would need to check on the high temp of your slow cooker and then figure out how long to cook it. Low temp on a slow cooker is usually around 200 and high temp is around 300. Hope this helps. Should work just fine, be sure to watch it closely. The chicken is precooked so it mainly just need to be heated through well.

ann says:

What could I use in place of the yogurt?

emily says:

low fat sour cream. I made a casserole similar to this one last night, it called for sour cream, and I thought I would get ahead of myself and sub greek yogurt instead. It was very sour and bitter tasting. So if you don't want that, I would sub the yogurt for sour cream.

Joan in VA says:

Yeah, we used to use sour cream.
