Notes
Preshredded cheese is fine if you don't wanna shred your own. Â Also, Â you can cook 2-3lbs of chicken breast or thighs how you prefer if you don't wanna use a rostierrie chicken.
Do you grease your casserole pan?
I always do.
Cooked this tonight and the family loved it. I did add spinach and 1 can of fire roasted tomatoes. Will definitely be cooking again. Thank You :0)
