This giveaway is now over. Thank you for entering! The winner will be contacted directly.
This giveaway is just.plain.FUN!!!
I received an awesome basket from Swanson to help me with my summer entertaining. And, when I say basket, I really mean a basket!
Do you have a picnic basket? I never did so when I opened up this package, I was soooo excited! Even better, this beautiful basket came FILLED with the necessities for a family picnic! That, my friends, is called DETAILS!
One of the yummy recipes in the basket (YES, recipes are included too) was something I had been wanting to make for a while. I have made a similar version of the Cool Chicken ‘n’ Pasta Salad but without chicken. Adding in the chicken was a good source of protein and made it a balanced lunch. I guess that just goes to show you, you can do more with Swanson Chicken than the Buffalo Chicken Dip (that’s my standby and I could eat it everyday!!).
Cool Chicken ‘n’ Pasta Salad
3 Cups Cooked Pasta (elbow or corkscrew)
2 Cans Swanson Premium White Chunk Chicken Breast
1 Small Cucumber, sliced
1 1/2 Cups Cherry Tomatoes, cut in half
1 Small Onion, chopped (I omit this)
3 Tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped (I used dried)
3/4 Cup Fat-Free Italian Salad Dressing
I also added a few hard boiled eggs, but the recipe didn’t actually call for it. You just toss all of these goodies together and stick in the fridge to chill for at least 30 minutes. I like my pasta salad nice and cold!

Love it! I so want to go on a picnic now.
Here is a recipe my family enjoys:
Chicken Terrezini
1/2 pkg. thin spaghetti broken into small pieces (1-2 inch pieces)
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 large can of Swanson chicken shredded
2 large serving spoonfuls of sour cream
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms (optional)
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Saute mushrooms in small amount of butter add chicken, cream of chicken soup and sour cream.
Cook spaghetti( that has been broken into bite size pieces). Cook according to package directions. Drain.
Place all together in 9 x 13 pan sprayed with Pam. Sprinkle with grated cheddar cheese on top.
Bake 350 for 30 minutes
I use the Swanson chicken with a little bit of Miracle Whip and some fresh fruit to make a chicken salad. I love it with grapes but have often used strawberries or peaches. It just depends on what’s in the house!
I tweeted. http://twitter.com/LadyRiposter/statuses/2388088645
I’ll have to try the canned chicken, probably much easier than my method of cooking chicken breasts, cutting them up, etc.
Oh man I love the buffalo chicken dip also!!!
But another way to use the swanson canned chicken is to shred it up add cole slaw dressing and it makes a yummy chicken salad. You can add what ever else you like….grapes, sliced almonds, celery. But it is yummy using the cole slaw dressing!!
I just subscribed to your emails :)
I subscribed to your daily email! I would love this baskette, as my 2 girls (2.5 and 5.5) love to go on picnics, and ask often! This would really make it fun!
Leaving you a little note that I have just subscribed to your feed, I am always looking for good snacks for the kid/s. The 7 year old would live on crackers if I let him. So needless to say I will be having a good long look around your site today.

My dish would be Chicken Quesadillas
I’m a subscriber.
Mix one can chicken, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, a can of (healthy request) cream of chicken soup, and 1 T dried parsley.
Press canned biscuits in the bottom of sprayed muffin tins. (This makes 12, I think.) Press them in so they make a little bowl. Spoon the filling into the bowls (it makes too much filling usually). Bake for the necessary time to cook the biscuits.
YUM YUM!

We love to eat the Easy Chicken Enchiladas. It’s a family favorite and I am a fan of the leftovers too!
I would make the cool chicken and pasta salad, minus the onion and add some fresh apples and almonds or pecans, and maybe some craisins. I love to mix the sweet stuff in with my homemade chicken salad, not to mention its good for you.
I want this sooooo bad!
One of our favorite ways to eat Swanson chicken is to make NO COOK Chicken Tortilla Wraps.
1 (5-6 3/4 oz.) can chunk style Swanson chicken
1/2 of sm. cucumber chopped up finely
1 sm. tomato chopped
1/2 c. shredded Cheddar or Swiss cheese
3 tbsp. buttermilk or ranch salad dressing
4 (7″) flour tortillas
1/2 c. shredded lettuce
Drain chicken. Shred apart with fork. Mix all together well and spread in center of tortillas, then fold. Wrap individually in plastic wrap or foil and throw into that picnic basket! :)
Quick and easy! The perfect thing to take on a picnic in this picnic basket.
I’d love to use it in a casserole.

This is a recipe I make when I’m too tired to cook a fancy family meal, but I still want to eat/serve something special:
1/2 onion, diced
clove or two of garlic, minced
2 carrots, peeled, sliced into thin coins, and microwaved for 3 minutes in a little water
1 can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 can pitted black olives
1 roasted red pepper (from a jar is ok), diced
about a cup of green veggies of your choice, cooked – leftovers are a star here
1 or 2 cans of Swanson chicken
8 oz. Swanson Chicken broth
1 cup cous cous
olive oil, salt, pepper, parsley, basil, whatever you like
Sautee onion in olive oil in large pan until soft; add all the other veggies and sautee on low heat for about 10 minutes.
In a small pot, combine the chicken and stock and bring to a boil – keep hot.
Add the cous cous and seasonings to the veggies, stir to mix well. Add the chicken and stock, cover pan and remove from heat. Let sit for 5 minutes.
Fluff with a fork, dress with a little more olive oil, and serve with pita bread.

This basket is so cute! I like to make chicken salad and then stuff the salad into ripe tomatoes (slice the tomato like a star on the top, but don’t go all the way through the tomato). This is a light and refreshing lunch or dinner meal.
Chicken and Dressing Casserole
1 large can of chunk chicken
1 stick butter (I use about half and add a little water)
1 can of cream of chicken soup
1 box of Stove Top cornbread dressing
In a 2-quart casserole, melt the butter in microwave. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir well. Microwave on high for about 5 minutes. Stir again and microwave on high for another 3 minutes. (I recommend either using the lower sodium stuffing or making your own cream of soup, because otherwise it’s a little salty for me.)
My family loves this and it is so easy and doesn’t heat the oven. Although the recipe calls for canned chicken, I have also used leftover chicken.
I subscribe!
A recipe I would make with the canned chicken is chicken nachos.
1 large can chicken
1/2 packet taco seasoning
olive oil
tortilla chips
lettuce
salsa
shredded cheese
sour cream
couple chopped garlic cloves
1/4 c chopped onion
Saute onion, garlic in olive oil. Add chicken and taco seasoning and heat for a couple minutes. Put tortilla chips in 8×8 baking dish, add chicken mixture on top, 1/2 jar salsa, and cheese. Put in oven under broiler to melt cheese. Serve with lettuce and sour cream.

Honestly I have never tried canned chicken until this year when we were at a friends for a party, they made the Buffalo Chicken Dip (canned chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheese and tabasco sauce). Now, not only I, but my husband and kids are great fans of this. Thanks for additional recipes to try with this and the opportunity to win. Boy, I would love a picnic at Saratoga Park this year with the family.

We use the chicken in burritos – black beans, rice salsa, cheese and chicken. Super easy and we top them with olives sour cream and guacamole. Yummy!
WOMAN-I Blogged my little heart away about this – my hubby and me need romance quick like LOL! What a GREAT CUTE giveaway-Thanks!
I have been making this easy chicken and noodles ever since my children were toddlers. They are 28, 27 and 25 now. It is just plain comfort food, with all pantry ingredients.
1 can Swansons chicken
2 or 3 cans Swansons chicken broth
about 2 cups of dry egg noodles.
Just bring the broth to a low boil, cook the noodles in the broth. Then add the chicken and heat through.
Add sliced carrots, frozen peas and corn if you like, but they are not essential.
I stuff crescent rolls with the chicken, cheddar cheese and cream of chicken soup mixed together–really good!
I like to make homemade noodles and then cook then in broth and add swansons chicken for protien
my chicken salad with grapes and pecans, the only things with mayo my two autistic sons will eat…so I know it’s the BOMB!

Chicken Salad is my favorite. Mix the chicken with miracle whip, and some dill relish. Get two slices of toast put some of the chicken salad one side, cover with the other. Enjoy. It’s quick and simple yet yummy.
My roomie in college always used to make chicken and pea sauce over biscuts. Make up some buttermilk biscuts. Then make a chicken gravy and add in some Swanson chicken and frozen peas. Pour over the biscuts. It was so yummy!
