Chicken Spaghetti Casserole

In the South, we love our Chicken Casseroles. My Mother-in-law makes a delicious one with a crunchy, buttery ritz cracker crust. It is one of her recipe staples that our whole family loves. That recipe will be coming soon. This chicken casserole is a little different. It is baked like a spaghetti casserole with loads of chicken, a white cheesy cream sauce, and topped with a crunchy cheesy panko crust. It is wicked good!

Each bite is loaded with comfort and flavor. It is a “Feed Your Soul” kind of meal.

My family absolutely loves it.

It also makes a great freezer meal.

You can make this meal ahead of time and freeze it for when you need it. If you are looking for a meal to give to a friend that has been in the hospital or just had a baby this is perfect. They can eat it right away or freeze it for later. If you have a small family, you could eat half and freeze the other half for another time. My family loves to eat the left overs, so I don’t ever get to freeze mine…… I hope your family loves it too. xoxo
