3 Easy to Make Chicken Casserole Recipes For Freezer Meals

As a busy mother and grandmother, I am always looking for ways to prepare delicious meals for my family...for those busy nights when I don't have hours to spend in the kitchen. To solve that problem, I like to make casserole dishes and freeze them for future meals.

When I make these 3 recipes, I make all of them in one day. You can freeze them in your baking dishes, however I like to go to the dollar store and purchase disposable foil baking pans. I can usually get them 3 for .00. I let them completely cool and then properly wrap them for freezing. They will keep in your freezer for up to 6 months.

Meat Casseroles

Cheesy Chicken Casserole

1 lb. Velveeta cheese, cubed

1 cup milk

1/2 cup salad dressing

8 oz. noodles, cooked and drained

1 tablespoon chives, chopped

Heat Velveeta cheese, milk and salad dressing over low heat. Stir until cheese sauce is smooth and creamy. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Mix well. Pour into casserole dish and bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes.

Chicken and Rice Casserole

2 cans cream of chicken soup

1 small box of instant white rice
