Ninja Casserole

the husband-type unit has been having a really hard time at work lately, basically he hates it. He's on the hunt for another job, but it's depressing him.
Today he had to go to work on his only day off, so i figured I'd make one of his favorite things for dinner to try and cheer him up, Baked ziti. But what do you know? we don't have any ground beef. /sigh

so i Ninja'd a casserole out of some stuff we had already in the fridge/freezer/cupboard.
thought i'd share =)



2- 5oz packages Vigo Yellow rice (Cooked by directions on package)
1 can Yellow corn
1 Boneless Skinless Chicken breast (broiled)
1 can Cream of Chicken soup (just the soup, no milk or water)
1 small green pepper
about half of a small red onion
1 package (2 cups) shredded cheddar cheese

cook the rice, broil or fry, ok just cook the chicken, i let Kae shred it into tiny bits after it was cooled a bit. dice the green pepper and onion and dump everything into a casserole dish, mix in cheese and put some on the top to cover.

cook uncovered for about 15-20 minutes at 400 degrees

it was a hit (i love when my experiments are well received...fewf!) some suggestions from the boys on things to add, Green onions instead of Red onion, more chicken, and possibly top with Sour Cream.
