DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a large bowl combine the chicken, salt and pepper, rice, soup, mushrooms, celery, onion, almonds and mayonnaise. Mix well and spread mixture into an ungreased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Spread a generous layer of butter or margarine onto one side of each slice of bread, then tear bread into small pieces and place on top of chicken mixture to form a top 'crust'.
Place baking dish on center oven rack and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 30 minutes, or until crust is crisp and golden and mixture is bubbly around the edges.

This recipe really tastes just like chicken salad. The family liked it. I cooked the chicken in extra light olive oil and Morton's Nature Seasons. I didn't change anything about the recipe except the mushrooms. I mean 16oz has to be an error?? I used a 4 oz can of sliced mushrooms and that was plenty. I used wheat bread because that is what we had. It tastes like toast on top of hot chicken salad. I'll make it again.

It was easy to do and good, but it lacked that "bam!" I like. Of course this was a last minute thing and I had to substitute ranch dressing for mayo, and green onions for celery and beef for chicken (okay, kidding about the chicken). I'd recommend some zesty spices as an addition.
