Notes

  1. You can use any blend of frozen vegetables that you like. I typically go for a combination of carrots and peas, but there are other varieties.
  2. Yes, this recipe contains cream of chicken soup. I use the heart healthy style here which is lower in fat and doesn’t contain MSG.
  3. Skip the store bought shredded cheese and grate your own instead.
  4. I typically use leftover diced turkey, but you can also cook up turkey specifically for this casserole.
