Rotisserie Chicken Casserole

The Veggie Loaded Rotisserie chicken Casserole is precisely what your dinner menu rotation desires! family friendly, low-carb, and significantly full of vegetables. It’s tremendous smooth to regulate and makes the pleasant leftovers! one in all my very first casserole-making related discoveries: the use of greek yogurt in preference to cream. Greek yogurt – so versatile, so yummy, so creamy – and not heavy cream. 

This method need to prevent a chunk of time, and i in reality agree it’s a first rate shortcut for this recipe. however, when I make the casserole, I do comply with unique guidelines. commonly, I choose to use clean produce due to the fact there’s much less packaging waste concerned.
