Notes
- Make ahead of time. Casseroles are a great make-ahead meal and this chicken and dressing casserole is no different. Assemble the casserole the day before, cover it, and keep it in the fridge. Due to the extra chill from the fridge, you will need to add about 10 minutes to the baking time.
- FREEZE. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and again with foil. Label and freeze for 3-4 months. Thaw and bake, adding extra time to account for the chill of the freezer.
- STORE leftover chicken stuffing bake in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for 3-4 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.

This casserole had great flavor but way more stuffing than needed. I would recommend reducing the stuffing by half and leaving the liquid at that same amount
Delicious! For once, we had no leftovers to throw away! It reheats beautifully and tastes even better the second time around! Thank you for our new family favorite!
Thank you this was an excellent
I am almost 100% sure that the nutrition facts are wrong, it would be nice to have more accurate counts.
Iโm sure the sodium levels are much higher. But then I know that going into a recipe made with can soup. I used slightly steamed broccoli in place of the mixed vegetables since thatโs what I had on hand. I added a sprinkling of garlic and onion powder for extra flavor. Itโs in the oven baking so I canโt wait for that hour to be up.
I just made this but I didnโt cook the stuffing before mixing it all up. I used bagged fry stuffing half plain half seasoned. Baked covered! Turned out amazing
Thanks for sharing what you did. I’m so glad you enjoyed the casserole!
I have a question. I am looking to prep this ahead of time to freeze and have it ready to bake at a later date. (within the next 2 months) For best results do I need to cook/bake everything first, especially the chicken, or should I combine all ingredients raw/frozen then cover, and bake only once when I’m ready to make the meal to eat?
I appreciate the help on this! We are about to move but there will be some time when we have limited kitchen supplies and I would like to have some easy homemade freezer meals prepped and ready for my family! Thanks in advance!
You will want to make the casserole the same as the recipe states… so you will use cooked chicken and thawed veggies. Then you can freeze the whole thing. The day you want to eat it, just put it in the fridge the night before to thaw. Then cook as directed in the recipe… maybe a few minutes more to make sure it is heated through.
Best of luck with the move!! What a smart idea to have some freezer meals ready for that time.
I tried this recipe. Absolutely wonderful, so yummy. Thank you
This tastes like my childhood! My astranged mother used to make something almost exactly like this. So glad to have found this recipe.
10/10. Easy, quick and affordable. And we always devour the leftovers!
Itโs soooo good!! Could use double the stuffing since one didnโt cover it.
I am still new to this channel I can’t believe it I finally found a place where I know I could probably cook something really good everything looks so good and I’m going to the chicken casserole with the stove top stuffing and the donuts I can’t wait to do the other stuff seriously I finally found a place where I can understand the menu the ingredients and the visuals are to die for it thank you very much I’m so glad I stumbled upon you I’m so happy right now
