I actually made this today for Patrick. I made it all then he just had to bake it when he got home. Patrick really likes this dish... I think it is one of his favorites.
Chicken and Wild Rice Bake
-Adapted from About.com
-3 cups cooked wild rice
-3 cups chopped cooked chicken
-16oz pkg frozen French cut green beans
-17oz jar Alfredo sauce

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix rice, chicken, green beans (thawed), and Alfredo sauce in a large bowl. Plane in a 12x8 casserole dish. Sprinkle with bread-crumbs.
Cook 45-50 minutes until casserole is bubbly.
You can also freeze this dish if you want to make it ahead of time for an good make ahead meal.
Freezer Directions:
Undercook rice by 10 minutes. Do not thaw green beans.
Mix all ingredients and place in baking dish. Wrap well and attach a small bag of bread crumbs.
Freeze for up to 3 months.
