I found your blog tonight (from the weigh I am), found this recipe and made it tonight – awesome! We halved the ‘one family’ recipe and made it 4 servings. We put it in wraps – SO good. Thanks so much – can’t wait to make more of your recipes. I’ll post to my blog tonight and link to you – thanks again!
Are you freezing this meal? Thanks
Yes, we freeze it before baking it. You can put it is a freezer bag or in a pan to freeze.
If I prepare this recipe and freeze it for later use, shoul I still bake it at 400 degrees> Do I have to extend baking time?
Actually this is good baked or not. But yes, bake it after thawing, it sounds weird baked because it did to me at first but it is really good.
Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is valuable and all. Nevertheless think of if you added some great graphics or video clips to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this blog could definitely be one of the greatest in its field. Superb blog!
the ‘one family’ size-would you say that would be the amount for a 9×13 or an 8×8′ pan. I participate in a freezer meal swap and the requirement is either one 9×13 or 2 8×8’s per family. Thank you -looks yummy!!
One Size Family fits best in an 8×8. I put mine in a round aluminum pan to freeze.
I froze mine uncooked. After thawing in the refridgerator, it was watery and very unappetizing looking. I didn’t add the cornflakes before freezing. HELP! Can I rescue this dish?
When you say “uncooked” do you mean your chicken? I would stir it and bake it and see how it looks!
