- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup (or substitute with cream of chicken or cream of celery)
Instructions:

Add Vegetables: Top the chicken with your choice of vegetables. Whether you opt for frozen corn, green beans, or peas, spread them evenly over the chicken.

Add Stuffing: Spoon the prepared stuffing mix over the top of the chicken and vegetable layers, spreading it out to cover the entire surface.
