Here are a couple of my favorite recipes for this part of the move:<\/p>\n<h3>Chicken Casserole<\/h3>\n<p>What you need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 Can of Green Beans<a href=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/chicken-casserole.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-26587 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/chicken-casserole.jpg\" alt=\"chicken casserole\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/chicken-casserole.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/chicken-casserole-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>1 Can of Corn<\/li>\n<li>1 Can of Green Chilies<\/li>\n<li>1 Can of Cream of Chicken (or cream of whatever really)<\/li>\n<li>1 Cup of water (use the soup can for measurement)<\/li>\n<li>1 package of boneless chicken breast or thighs (I have used bone-in at times, just not the same)<\/li>\n<li>Seasoning:\u00a0 I like to just use Salt, Pepper, &amp; Garlic Powder<\/li>\n<li>Optional: You can add rice or pasta for that extra bit of goodness<\/li>\n<li>Optional: If you\u00a0have some cheese in the fridge, it makes for a nice topper during or after cooking.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I prefer to cook the chicken with the green chilies first in a skillet as its much faster to cook it this way. Once that is done, place all the above ingredients\u00a0in a casserole dish, stir it up. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30-45 minutes or until everything is nice and hot! Add cheese to top about 10 minutes before pulling out of oven.<\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0Tuna Salad<\/h3>\n<p>What you need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/saltines-on-plate.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-26588 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/saltines-on-plate.jpg\" alt=\"saltines on plate\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/saltines-on-plate.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/saltines-on-plate-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a>2\u00a0Cans of Tuna<\/li>\n<li>1 or 2 Hard Boiled Egg (if desired)<\/li>\n<li>1 Can of Peas<\/li>\n<li>1 Whole Pickle (cut up into small pieces)<\/li>\n<li>Chunk of Cheese (break apart or cut into pieces)<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 Cup Chopped Onion<\/li>\n<li>2 Tablespoons Mayo (or to taste)<\/li>\n<li>Mustard (to taste)<\/li>\n<li>Optional: Tomato and Avocado are nice additions if you have them lying around<\/li>\n<li>Crackers\/Bread\/Lettuce (Really anything you prefer to pile up the tuna salad on)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Outside of the egg, nothing needs to be cooked. Mix the tuna, peas, pickle, cheese, onion with mayo and mustard in a bowl. Grab your crackers and enjoy!<\/p>\n<p>For more ideas on what to eat during your moving process, check out these ideas for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/uhaul\/moving-day-recipes\/\" target=\"_blank\">meals <\/a>and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/uhaul\/healthy-snacks-for-your-move\/\" target=\"_blank\">snacks<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>These are just a couple of my go-to <a href=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/tag\/meals\/\" target=\"_blank\">meals<\/a> when I am running low on groceries and need a quick, easy meal.
