Cheesy Chicken and Green Bean Casserole

November 9, 2024

I love a good old fashioned chicken casserole dinner! What could be better than everything you need mixed into one delicious, hot and bubbling casserole?

This chicken casserole has it all! I love how the chicken mixes together with the green beans in a yummy, cheesy cream sauce. And the crunchy topping just takes it over the top for an incredible comfort food dinner!

This casserole is delicious served over rice or noodles. If you are looking for a quick and easy dinner that you can just throw together, then this is the one for you! You can even just pick up a rotisserie chicken from the market to make it even easier. This recipe is a family favorite that you are sure to love too!
