Notes

Storage

Allow the creamy chicken casserole to completely cool, place in an airtight container. It will last in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Leftovers freeze great up to three months.
Reheat uncovered in the oven until hot and bubbly. This will crisp up the topping again. If you reheat in the microwave, the top will be soggy.
