Perfect as a weeknight meal but we have served this as a company dinner also to rave reviews. The fact that it can be whipped up in no time makes it a big winner!

If you would like to change this casserole up a bit you can add some green beans, corn or carrots or all three to this before you bake it. I usually par cook the veggies first. Frozen vegetables will do just fine for this. It it just another option for your dinner menu.

Can this Ritz Cracker Chicken Bake be frozen?

Yes it can! You can freeze this if you store it in an air tight container. We don’t normally have much for leftovers but if you do it should be fine in your freezer for 2 months.
