    Cream Soup 

    You are welcome to use cream of celery, mushroom, or any other cream soup in replace of cream of chicken soup. 

    Canadian Bacon 

    Instead of bacon you can dice up and toss in Canadian bacon instead. This will give it a cordon blue. You could also use ham if you wanted. 

    Vegetables 

    You are more than welcome to add in broccoli, green beans, peas, etc. You can drain and add in canned or frozen vegetables to give it the perfect texture. Or slice up fresh veggies and mix in. Do around ⅓ of a cup. 

    Chicken and Potato Casserole FAQs

    potato chicken casserole

    How to store the chicken casserole? 

    Store any leftover casserole in an airtight container in the fridge. The casserole will store for 2-3 days no problem. 

    Best way to reheat the casserole? 

    Warm your casserole in the microwave for a quick reheat. Or if you want to warm it up in the oven just cover the casserole in foil. Then heat it up until warmed through. 

    Can I add a crumble topping? 

    Mix ½ cup breadcrumbs or crackers with 2 tablespoons butter. Add the crumble on top of the casserole and it will bake up nice and golden in color and taste delicious for a crunchy component. 

    Why is my sauce thin? 

    If your sauce is thin just allow it to sit for about 10 minutes once you remove it from the oven. This will help it thicken up a bit. The sauce is meant to be slightly runny. It will thicken more once you refrigerate the leftovers.
