These casseroles can be made ahead of time or on the same day as consumption. They also make wonderful meals for get togethers and church events. You can choose to freeze them for future dinners as well.
Simple Chicken Casserole Recipe Tips
- Choose the correct baking dish. Small casseroles can be made in an 8×8 dish. Bigger casseroles can be made in bakeware that measures 9×13.
- Drain your meat. Whether you are using chicken, hamburger meat, sausage, ham, or turkey, be sure to drain it properly to prevent a soggy or greasy casserole.
- Be aware of the types of cheese and which ones are casserole friendly. Certain ones such as blue and feta aren’t made for melting. They are better off placed in the middle of the casserole versus the top.

To freeze, follow the assembly instructions (minus the cooking part) in a disposable aluminum pan. Double wrap the pan with saran wrap and also aluminum foil. Write defrosting and baking directions (to include the oven temperature) with a Sharpie on top of the covered casserole. The casserole can stay frozen for up to 2 months.
How to Defrost Your Casserole
Take the casserole pan out of the freezer and place in the refrigerator overnight. On the day of consumption, remove the saran wrap and tin foil from the pan and bake as instructed. Consume within 2-3 days.
