I love going to potluck gatherings because this is the time when I get to catch up with my friends. This is also the time where I get to taste different types of food. Being a mother, I usually love getting ideas from friends and this is one of the occasions where I can. But I always make sure I also have something to share back just like this creamy chicken bake.
“Need a bring-along main dish for any gathering? We’ve got you covered with this Bring-Along Casserole! It’s a down-home creamy chicken bake that has a crunchy topping, to add excitement to every forkful.”
This is actually what I love most about this chicken bake recipe. It has that crunchy topping yet it’s so creamy inside. Mom used to make this extra crunchy and it just went well with the creamy chicken inside. Serve this with a plate of green salad and it’s perfect!
