Chicken Ranch Casserole
"This is a comforting, hearty dish best served during cold weather. Ready in less than half an hour and requiring simple ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen; this chicken casserole is also a great weeknight option. You can use leftover chicken or cooked and shredded chicken breasts – all options work well here. While this chicken casserole is already good served on its own, you can serve it with a keto-friendly side dish like mashed cauliflower, cauliflower rice, garlic keto bread, or a salad."
