Boil chicken with celery leaves, onion and bay leaf. Skim fat off broth and
use to cook rice, reserving 1/3 cup for sauteing vegetables. Cook rice in
broth. Add Velveeta Lite, stir to melt. Steam vegetables in broth until
slightly tender. Combine all ingredients except grated cheese. Pour in
casserole and bake at 350 degrees until hot and bubbly. Top with grated

NOTES : I like to substitute chopped turkey ham for the chicken breasts
sometimes. It is a delicious twist to this favorite recipe.
