Hawiian Haystacks


This is one of my favorite meals...my family isn't so thrilled with it but they just eat what they like of it so I can still make this once in awhile.

2 (10 ¾ oz) cans cream of chicken soup
1 cup chicken broth
2 cups diced chicken, cooked
4 cups cooked rice (since a can of broth is usually 2 cups I usually use the other cup to cook the rice with...plus any water that needs to be added to make up the difference for how much rice you're cooking)

Combine soup and broth in a saucepan to make gravy. Stir to blend and simmer about 8-10 minutes, until heated through. Add chicken and heat. Layer all ingredients. First stack rice, chow mien noodles, and chicken gravy. Add other ingredients as desired.
1 cup chopped celery
1 can chow mien noodles
½ cup chopped green pepper
3 medium tomatoes, sliced
1 can olives, sliced
1 20 oz can pineapple chunks, drained
1 small onion, chopped
1 cup grated cheese
½ cup slivered almonds
½ cup coconut
As you can see from the picture, we don't always use everything and sometimes I have something else we'll just give it a try on there. My husband doesn't like the sweet stuff so he avoids those things but he does like the "crunchy" things. The kids just like everything separate. Me...the higher the stack...the better :)
