Heaven knows that I love a good casserole . . . and I love it even more when it comes together in a matter of minutes!
My good friend Trish from Mom On Timeout has just released the best cookbook of all time: 100 Creative Ways to Use Rotisserie Chicken!
There are many days that I am just too tired to cook dinner, but this book shows you how simple a delicious dinner can be just by picking up a rotisserie chicken on the way home and adding a couple more ingredients. It truly is a lifesaver!
This book is loaded with amazing recipes, including:
5 Ingredients or Less
20-Minute Dinners
Slow Cooker Creations
Savory Sandwiches
(And so much more!)
The best part of this book is that every recipe is so different. You could literally make a new recipe everyday and nothing would taste like the recipe before. There’s an amazing assortment to please every palate!
I was debating between the Chicken Parmesan Calzones and this recipe, but ultimately chose this casserole because it’s two of my favorite things (cornbread and tacos) combined into one . . . and holy cow, the combination is incredible!!!
My family loved it, I loved that it was easy, and we all loved that we had a delicious dinner that was ready in a couple of minutes. You will love this cookbook!
