Hawaiian Haystacks

This has been around for a long time so I just assumed everyone knew how to make it. Then my cousin posted on Facebook for people to tell her what they put on theirs. Well it turns out a lot of the comments that she got were "What is Hawaiian Haystacks". This is a family must. It is so easy and every mom should have it in her back up. The best part is you can make it for 2-99. It is such an easy recipe. I hope you enjoy them as much as we do. All the flavors just pop in your mouth. Mmmm goodness!

4-6 cups cooked rice
2 celery ribs
1 green pepper
2-3 green onions
1-2 tomatoes
1 cup shredded carrots
1 small can pineapple tidbits
2 cups grapes halved
1-2 cups cheddar cheese
1/2 cup slivered almonds
1/2 cup coconut
1 cup Chow mien noodles.  

Sauce

1-2 chicken breasts diced
2 TB olive oil
1/2 tsp garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can of milk
1'2 cup sour cream
1 tsp  Santa Maria Seasoning (optional)

Heat olive oil on medium heat.  add the chicken.  Brown the chicken with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.  Cook until no longer pink, and the skin is just browning.  Add soup, and milk.  Bring to a boil.  Remove from heat and add the sour cream and seasoning. 

Layer the Haystacks
First rice,
cheese
sauce
then add the remaining ingredients to your hearts desire.  The best part is everything on the list can be optional.  Just put on it what you like.  I would never put almonds on mine but I love the grapes.  It is up to you.  Enjoy
