When it comes to cooking, one of my favorite things to make is a good casserole. I love how easy they are to throw together, and I love how you can prepare them ahead of time and then just stick them in the oven when you are ready. This really helps me find the time to cook when it is convenient for me, and I make casseroles a lot for this reason.

Sometimes I want something a little different than the usual casserole taste, however, and this recipe for Chicken Enchilada Casserole fits the bill perfectly. It’s got all the delicious flavors of my favorite Roasted Red Pepper and Chipotle Quesadilla recipe, but it’s a little more convenient to make because I can make it ahead of time, like I can with this Mexican Chicken in the Crockpot recipe.

Another thing I love about this Chicken Enchilada Casserole recipe is all the great ingredients! It has tons of yummy add-ins that my family loves, and I love how many good-for-you veggies you can squeeze into this one casserole! From peppers to onions to olives to jalapenos to corn–this recipe’s got it all! The way that the ingredients come together in this yummy casserole is truly phenomenal.

The next time you’ve got a busy day and you’re hungry for something a little different, why not give this recipe for Chicken Enchilada Casserole a try? It might just be your family’s new favorite!
