Christina's Notes
- Spicy Poblano Bake: Roast poblano peppers and add them to the chicken mix for a smoky and slightly spicy flavor.
- Make Minis: Make and bake smaller individual portions for meal prep or to take to work or school.
- Layer: Layering your ingredients ensures even distribution of flavors and textures.
- Top it off: Once your casserole is baked, get creative with the toppings! Chopped avocado, fresh cilantro, more cheese and sour cream, salsa, and crumbled queso fresco are all delicious options for seasoned chicken.
