Directions

1. 1

   Grate or finely chop the carrot, celery, onion and garlic and saute in olive oil until tender. (I like them grately finely so they are "hidden" in this dish!).

   Mix the cooked veggies with your chicken and layer on the bottom of a greased casserole dish.

3. 3

   Next, sprinkle in the ham and on top of the ham spread out the cheese slices.

4. 4

   Combine soup and milk and pour over the top.

5. 5

   Spread the stuffing on top of this, cover and place in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.

6. 6

   Add mashed potatoes to the top in dollops, top with salt, pepper and paprika and bake uncovered an additional 10 minutes.

7. 7

   Let rest 10 minutes before serving.
