Buffalo Chicken Casserole:
All your favorite parts of buffalo wing eating, including the potato wedges, in a casserole form. This buffalo chicken casserole boasts chicken, bacon, potatoes, cheese, and green onion, and is a delicious combo of flavors!
Would you believe it if I told you the first time I ever had anything buffalo growing up? My parents were not big lovers of spicy, so I did not grow up eating much of it. But then I started exploring my tastebuds on my own, and realized I was a huge fan of buffalo sauce myself.
So then I started cooking with buffalo sauce, and learned the art of buffalo and ranch consumption, wings, and things. And I can now say that I really really enjoy buffalo chicken, and this casserole is pretty gosh darn delicious.
This Buffalo Chicken Casserole is one of those recipes that has been a life saver for me because recently, I have not wanted to make dinner like at all. I love cooking. And I love being able to give my family awesome meals, but sometimes by the end of the day I am worn out. I love this set of Casserole Dishes because one word.. lids!
This particular casserole is easy to throw together, and I will often put it together early in the day, and then just bake it at dinner time. This gives me lots of flexibility, and the flavors only get better with time.
