To elevate your casserole, feel free to add some fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary. They really enhance the flavors! You can also try switching out the mixed vegetables for whatever you have available; peas, carrots, or green beans are all great options.

variation
Switch things up a bit by experimenting with different proteins! Shredded turkey makes a fantastic substitute, especially around the holidays. If you want a vegetarian version, just swap the chicken for chickpeas or white beans, and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
FAQs
Can I use fresh vegetables instead of frozen?
Absolutely! Fresh veggies will work great. Just chop them up and sauté them a bit before mixing them in, so they’re tender.
What can I use if I don’t have cream of chicken soup?
No worries! You can use cream of celery soup or a homemade cream of mushroom soup as a substitute. Both will add a delicious flavor.
Can this casserole be frozen?
Yes, you can freeze it before baking! Just make sure to cover it tightly with foil or a lid. When you’re ready to bake, let it thaw in the fridge overnight before popping it in the oven.
