Amazing and Easy Chicken Bacon Ranch Casserole- Low Carb & Trim Healthy Mama S
This easy and delicious chicken bacon ranch casserole will be a hit with your family!
This casserole is low carb, trim healthy mama s, but I would serve this to anyone. It is so easy to make and delicious! I have had this ready to make for a while now and I regret not making it sooner. If you have picky family members, this just might be a new favorite. If they like ranch, definitely add this recipe to your menu.
This casserole is creamy and full of flavor.
My only complaint is it doesn’t look as good as it tastes. It is so much better than it looks. I also added a bag of thawed and drained, cooked frozen spinach. This is my new favorite veggie to add to dishes. I have been adding it to so many things. I am not a spinach fan, but find this version to not be as strongly flavored. You can skip that if you want/need to. My family ate it as is and loved it.
To make this even easier, use half of a rotisserie chicken.
I absolutely love getting a rotisserie chicken from Costco or Sam’s. They make busy days so much easier. You could also cook your chicken ahead of time with your meal prep. I like to cook my chicken in a slow cooker or a pressure cooker, depending on my day. I love my Ninja Foodi. It does everything for me, well, just about everything.

These are the bacon pieces I buy.
This is the ranch I use. It isn’t perfect, but it works when I need convenience. We also don’t have it every week. Use whatever ranch you feel comfortable using.

I don’t understand the instructions for the ranch dressing: “ two packs of dry ranch seasoning. I just look on the package and measure out two packages worth.”
Could you please clarify? Or two packages two packages worth? Thank you.
I use a bulk ranch seasoning mix. I believe it is pictured in the post above.
