Poppyseed Chicken Casserole Recipe

I don’t know if you can ever have too many chicken casserole recipes—so if you’re like me then add this one to your collection if you don’t have it already! There is a special ingredient in this dish that makes the flavors “pop”—can you guess what it is???

This recipe can be oven ready in minutes if you have precooked chicken. Just dice or shred your cooked chicken, add a couple of cans of cream soup and poppyseeds.

For the buttery “crust” add crushed Ritz crackers and a stick of butter. Then all you have to do is bake the chicken casserole for about 45 minutes! Easy peasy!
