Cheesy Ranch Chicken and Potato Casserole is so simple to throw together and oh so yummy! I like this casserole for many reasons but my top reason is the ingredients. Chicken, broccoli, potatoes with ranch dressing and cheese.

The casserole is full of crunchy, baked potatoes, juicy chicken, steamed broccoli smothered in ranch dressing topped with melted cheese.

Tips:
  • Use leftover oven roasted chicken or rotisserie chicken in place of boiled chicken.
  • Spice it up by replacing half or more of the Mexican cheese with pepper jack cheese.

One final reason why I like Cheesy Ranch Chicken and Potato Casserole is that it is perfect to take to potluck functions.

Have a great day!
