FAQs

Can I prepare this casserole ahead of time?

Yes, you can assemble the casserole a day before baking. Keep it covered in the refrigerator and bake it fresh when ready to serve.

Can I freeze leftovers?

Freezing is possible but may change the texture of the vegetables and stuffing slightly. For best results, freeze uncooked assembled casserole and bake from frozen, adding extra baking time as needed.

  • Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat nicely in the oven or microwave.
  • To make the casserole gluten-free, use a gluten-free stuffing mix and verify that the cream of chicken soup is gluten-free.
