Pam's Chicken Casserole

From Pam:
This is an old family recipe, that I have served over and over. After every get together, I am asked for the recipe.

Cook Time: 35 minutes

Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients:

2 chickens, cut and shredded (I use boneless chicken breasts)
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup chopped green bell peppers
2 T. Butter
1 (10 oz) pkg. noodles or fettuccine, cooked & drained
1 tsp. garlic salt
1 can (4oz) mushroom pieces, drain
1 can cream mushroom soup
1 can cream chicken soup
1 cup sour cream
1 small jar pimento, chopped
1 (8oz) can sliced water chestnuts
2 cups shredded cheese (I use more as we like cheesy things)

Preparation:

Cook chicken and shred. Sauté veggies, in butter. Cook noodles and drain. Mix all together in casserole, reserving a little cheese for topping, if desired. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until hot through and cheese is melted. Top with more cheese and continue to cook for a few minutes, until cheese is melted.
Pam's Note: This freezes well also, if you have any left, which I never do. I serve this with salad, rolls and ice tea. Enjoy!

Easy vanilla butter cake

Cooking Time

150 minutes

Ingredients (serves 15)

Melted butter, to grease
450g (3 cups) self-raising flour
150g (1 cup) plain flour
440g (2 cups) caster sugar
300g butter, cubed, at room temperature
310ml (1 1/4 cups) milk
6 eggs, at room temperature
3 tsp vanilla essence
Method
1. Preheat oven to 140°C. Position a rack on the second lowest shelf of the oven. Brush a round 25cm (base measurement) cake pan with the melted butter to lightly grease. Line base and sides with non-stick baking paper.
2. Place the self-raising flour, plain flour, sugar, butter, milk, eggs and vanilla essence in a large mixing bowl. Use an electric beater to beat on low speed for 30 seconds or until just combined. Increase the speed to high and beat for 1-2 minutes or until the mixture is thick and all the butter is incorporated. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the surface with the back of a spoon.
3. Bake in preheated oven for 2 1/2 hours or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Remove from oven and set aside for 10 minutes. Turn onto a wire rack for 2 hours or until completely cool.
Notes
- Have the butter at room temperature, soft enough to beat, but not melted. The undecorated cakes will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
