last minute pantry dinner casserole
Ever had a, "OMG what am I going to fix tonight?”, moment?? Last night I threw together everything but the kitchen sink, I think. I had frozen stir-fry veggies, frozen roasted chicken pieces, well you’ll see the recipe...And Wow! What a surprise!? I think I came up with something new that’s my favorite. Reheated the very next day is delicious!! So, I think I turned my fear into a OMG it’s so good moment! AND, I got a lot of vegetables in!! There would’ve been pics, but we were in a rush this time. Maybe next time...hopefully!

How To Make last minute pantry dinner casserole
-
Step 1Heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray or butter a 9x13 inch casserole dish and set aside.
-
Step 2Mix frozen vegetables, cream of chicken, yogurt, shredded cheese, and sleeve of lightly crushed Ritz crackers, mixing as you go. Add about 1 handful of the cornbread and toss in, mixing it in.
-
Step 3Lightly defrost frozen, roasted chicken strips. Break and/or chop into bite size pieces. Open can of sweet corn, drain can corn well, then add and mix altogether well. Add black pepper to taste.
-
Step 4At this point, I added the remaining (crumbled) cornbread as a topping. It browned just a little bit, but was pleasantly surprised. You could cover the dish in the last 5 minutes with tinfoil in case you do not want the topping to burn.
-
Step 5Bake at 375 for 30 minutes, or until bubbling on the sides.
