Texan Ranch Chicken Casserole
Every time I serve this creamy chicken ranch casserole, it gets rave reviews. The recipe was passed down to me and is so good! It's really easy to make, freezes well and has just a touch of heat. If your family likes more, add some jalapenos! Dovetailing Tip: Use the chicken that you cooked on day 2 in today’s casserole.
