I used to make this Wild Rice & Chicken Casserole when we were first married for dinner parties. It was "cheap and cheerful" as we would say. It features cooked chicken, wild rice (personally, I prefer to use a wild rice blend when making this dish, which does make it cheaper!), mushrooms, pimentos, and a creamy sauce. It's then topped with slivered almonds and baked in the oven until bubbly and golden brown on top.

1Sauté the onion and mushrooms in butter until soft, remove from heat and stir in the flour.
