What Makes This Keto Casserole Recipe So Great

• Fast. Dinner that is ready in under 30 minutes.
• Easy. Layer the ingredients and bake.
• Low Carb. Only 4 net carbs per serving.
• Delicious. A creamy, melty casserole your whole family will love!
• Versatile. I included a list of ingredients for this recipe, but you could easily customize it with whatever cooked protein or keto-friendly veggies you have on hand.

Let's be honest, this is another one of those recipes that I threw together with ingredients that I already had in my fridge.

But you know what? That's how some of the best comfort food recipes are made.

Nothing beats not having to go shopping for an extensive list of ingredients just to make dinner for the night. This Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole is one of those recipes that you'll want to put into regular rotation when planning your dinners for the week.

As you probably already know, I'm a huge fan of recipes that take minimal prepping to make. This Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole is so simple that you could probably have your kids make it for dinner (if you trust them with the oven, of course).

But trust me, don't let the simplicity of the dish fool you. This dish is absolutely delicious.

And absolutely do NOT skip the ground nutmeg. #TrustUrvashi. That one ingredient will make all the difference.

Can I Use Rotisserie Chicken For This Recipe?

That's actually exactly what I did.

I bought the ham, the chicken, and the swiss cheese all at the deli, and voila! Dinner.

So use leftover chicken, use rotisserie chicken, poach chicken from scratch--it will work either way. I also use this method when I make my Reuben Casserole. It's an easy Keto dinner option that has all the flavor of a tasty Reuben, and none of the carbs.

Ingredients You'll Need

• Diced cooked chicken
• Diced Ham
• Ground Black Pepper
• Ground Nutmeg
• Half and Half
• Swiss cheese

How To Make Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole

1. In a large bowl, toss together chicken, ham, pepper, nutmeg and half and half.

2. Spray an 8x8 baking pan.

3. Place the half the chicken and ham mixture into the pan. Layer with 2-3 slices of swiss cheese.

4. Top with remaining chicken and ham. Place the remaining slices of swiss cheese on top.

5. Place the pan in the oven. Set to 400°F for 25 minutes.

Can I Freeze This Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole?

Absolutely.

That's another great thing about this recipe is that it freezesverywell, which is perfect if you're the meal planning type or if you have leftovers.

And believe it or not, I'd have to say that it actually tastes better the next day. But don't take my word for it. Try it for yourself and see.
