- I love using my own homemade pulled chicken breasts, but you can use rotisserie chicken too!

- This recipe is perfect for add-ins. Mix in mushrooms, carrots, peas, corn, green beans, celery, kale or spinach, or small cubed potatoes for a bulked up and delicious veggie-stuffed casserole your kids will love!

- You can change up the proportions of the creamy ingredients such as the cottage cheese and cream cheese- adjust them to your preferred flavor profile.

- Bacon bits crumbled into the buttery Ritz cracker topping make this dish even more irresistible.
- If you're looking for a bulkier main course casserole, try turning this recipe into Creamy Chicken and Rice casserole! All you need to do is add 4 cups of cooked rice and reduce the diced chicken by 1 cup. Stir it all together and bake!
