*Creamy Chicken Casserole* (Diabetic)

Hello every one! How are you today? Today and tomorrow are going to be casseroles. I love casseroles, they are quick and easy. I chose this because the weather here in Portland Oregon has cooled down considerably. We can cook in the house now. I,m not sure where the salt content is coming from. I went through and tried to take out as much as I could, maybe you can figure it out. If you do, please leave me a message and tell me what you think. Well here is the recipe.
