This creamy chicken and potato casserole is our new go-to solution for those nights when we really need a break from the kitchen. We had this dish ready for the oven in no time last night. Then we sat back and relaxed with the family while the oven did the work for us. The results were absolutely fabulous!

It’s creamy and cheesy, hearty and flavorful, and sprinkled with yummy bacon for a taste we all adore. We can’t believe all of this goodness requires so little effort. It’s an all-around win-win…we get to enjoy our evening, and there’s still something wonderful on the dinner table to share with our loved ones!
