A super easy casserole

I almost feel obligated to post a recipe because I think recipes are part of the draw for this blog.  I think that single men should pay special attention to the recipes I post here because women like a man that can make her a good meal.  Making a delicious meal is easier than I thought, but having a variety is a little more difficult.  Now I understand why my family would eat Hawaiian haystacks six Sundays in a row.  Although I still contend that one does not need to eat the same meal six Sundays in a row.

I call this "Chicken, Rice, and Peas."  Super clever.

Here's what you need:

Two cans of cream of chicken soup
One can of chicken (or a couple of chicken breasts chopped up and at least partially cooked)
12-16 ounces of frozen peas
1 lb. of regular white rice
Black pepper

The beauty of this recipe is twofold.  First, it's relatively inexpensive.  Second, it's super easy and delicious!  Maybe the beauty is threefold.  Whatever.  Here's how to prepare it.

Take a 9x13 casserole dish (cake pan) and spread the rice across the bottom.
Next, dump in both cans of soup with two cans of water (one can each).
Add the chicken, then kind of stir up the whole thing to get the ingredients blended.
Cover with aluminum foil and place in the oven at 450F for 30 minutes.
At the 30 minute mark, remove the casserole from the oven and give it a stir.  Add the peas and the pepper, cover with aluminum foil (the same piece will do), and place back in the oven for another 30 minutes.

I made this in anticipation of having dinner with a friend tonight.  I kind of like her, but I know that she has a lot of guys around her.  She's also going to Russia in two weeks, so it's not like much would work out.  I think I'll give this its own post.  Long story short: it was a good meal.  Although I don't think she was that into it.  They can't all be winners, right?  My last girlfriend liked this casserole though, so I'm not too worried about my audience.
