Egg Free, Dairy Free Simple Chicken and Rice a Roni Bake

This meal is so fast to put together and bakes into a yummy casserole. The chicken is moist and flavorful and the rice is tender and perfect. Baking the casserole this way tastes so much better than just cooking the chicken and Rice a Roni separately. The bottom picture was made with cooked ground sausage and peas in place of the chicken and corn.

 

 

Simple Chicken and Rice a Roni Bake

2 boxes chicken Rice a Roni
4 cups water
1 can turkey gravy
1 can corn or peas
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts

Combine the Rice a Roni, water, gravy, and corn in a sprayed 11x15 baking dish. Place the chicken on top of the mixture. Cover with foil then bake at 375 for 1 hour or until the chicken is cooked through.
