This is a comforting low carb, trim healthy mama s chicken cordon bleu casserole!

Comfort food is often loaded with carbs, but this chicken cordon bleu casserole isn’t. It is also incredibly easy to make. Nothing better than a yummy, rich dinner that takes no time at all to make. This is creamy casserole is perfect for dinner on busy days, as part of meal prep, or a family Sunday lunch. I know the picture doesn’t do it justice! This is definitely one of those dishes that underwhelms when you look at it, but the taste! It’s so good.

This dish uses precooked chicken.

You can buy a rotisserie chicken and use half or make some chicken during meal prep. I through some chicken breasts in a crockpot and let them cook on low for a few hours. You could pressure cook them, bake them, honestly whatever is most convenient for you. I love to get a Costco chicken and find ways to use it in yummy meals. This would be perfect. Easy, creamy, comforting, and low carb, what isn’t there to like?

This casserole is so simple to prepare, you will be in and out of the kitchen in no time.

If you are looking for something different and want to take boring chicken to the next level, add this to your menu. Sometimes we get in a rut serving the same things over and over again. It is so easy to do. When you are busy and just don’t have the time or energy to spend a lot of time in the kitchen, you just need dinner on the table fast. This dinner will do just that and might end up making your next rotation too! I would love to hear what you thought about it if you make it. It was a favorite with kids and hubby!

• Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes, or until hot and bubbly but not too dark.
  
• I topped with dried parsley because it looked so bland.
