Recipe Series: Cheesy Chicken Cups and Easy Chicken Casserole

Recipe Series: A Recipe with Coupon Matchups! (This is the second post of this series)

Here are two super easy recipes. The first, Cheesy Chicken Cups, is very kid-friendly. My kiddos enjoy helping me make them by "flattening" the biscuits before I put them in the muffin pan. The second recipe, Easy Chicken Casserole, is something I threw together years ago so I have no exact measurements. If you make casseroles, I'm sure it's similar to those recipes. The common ingredient in both recipes is Cream Of Chicken soup. I use Campbell's Healthy Request Cream of Chicken soup, but you can use other brands or types. Campbells often comes out with coupons for the soups in the Sunday inserts and online printables (like HERE).

Cheesy Chicken Cups
(Note: The picture on the left shows it made with broccoli. You can use other small veggies or none at all. I don't put any veggies because the cups then overfill. Instead, I serve it with a side of veggies)
