Recipes like our Chicken & Stuffing Casserole and Chicken Parmesan Casserole make for meals so tasty, you'll be scraping your plate. 01 of 19 Chicken & Stuffing Casserole View Recipe Stuffing is not just for Thanksgiving with this easy chicken and stuffing casserole. And speaking of Thanksgiving, if you have leftover turkey, feel free to substitute it for the chicken in this comforting and healthy recipe. It's also a great use for extra carrots, celery, onions and day-old bread you might have on hand around the holidays. There's no boxed stuffing mix or canned soup in this lighter take on the comfort-food casserole, but it's still super-easy to make. Poultry seasoning helps humble bread to taste like stuffing, while thickened chicken broth takes the place of canned soup. There are plenty of veggies in this one, too, making this a healthy casserole you can feel good about serving year-round. 02 of 19 Creamy Mushroom, Chicken & Asparagus Bake View Recipe This comforting weeknight casserole recipe features plenty of mushrooms and asparagus combined with chicken and brown rice and a creamy Parmesan cheese sauce.

Serve with a crisp green salad to complete the meal. 04 of 19 Quick King Ranch Chicken Casserole View Recipe Usually made by layering creamy chicken and tortillas (lasagna-style), this classic Tex-Mex chicken casserole gets speedier for an easy weeknight dinner when we mix everything together in a skillet, then pop the whole pan under the broiler to make the cheese topping gooey. 05 of 19 Spinach & Artichoke Casserole with Chicken and Cauliflower Rice View Recipe Andrea Mathis This high-protein chicken casserole clocks in right around 400 calories to help you end your day feeling satisfied—not starved or overly full. 06 of 19 Chicken Casserole with Pineapple, Peppers & Rice View Recipe Photography / Kelsey Hansen, Styling / Sammy Mila Precooked brown rice adds a boost of protein and fiber to this healthy casserole—versions of which are sometimes called "Hawaiian Chicken"—while also saving prep time.

Don't worry if you don't have one, because you can use any oven-safe skillet instead. 10 of 19 Chicken-Spaghetti Squash Bake View Recipe In this version of a chicken-and-broccoli casserole, spaghetti squash takes on a creamy texture when baked with cream of mushroom soup. 11 of 19 Chicken & Cauliflower-Rice Casserole View Recipe Will Dickey Get your veggies and your protein fix in this easy, gluten-free chicken and cauliflower-rice casserole.
