    super easy

    This Loaded Potato Casserole is packed with flavors and protein. Easy, delicious and perfect for a family friendly busy weeknight meal. 

    This casserole is packed with favorite flavors like bacon, cheese and creamy ranch.

    Ingredients and Substitutes:

    Cube your raw chicken into bite size pieces. 

    Using Greek Yogurt for added protein you get a perfectly creamy ranch sauce for your casserole. You could swap with pre-made ranch or if you need added fat use a 5% greek yogurt. 

    I buy bacon that is 80 calories for 2 slices (6F/0C/6P). You can swap with whatever bacon you’d like to use. Try to aim for the same macros per one or two slices and adjust from there. One of my favorite bacon brands is Pedersons Natural Farms. You can find my Creamy Bacon Halibut on their blog. 

    I used Lucerne low skim Mozzarella. We always have the family size pack in the fridge for everyday use. 

    Petite Golden Potatoes

    You can use the ranch recipe in this recipe and just add water to your desired ranch consistency. The greek yogurt adds and the combination of apple cider vinegar and seasoning remove the tartness of the greek yogurt. You’re going to love this one.

    Instructions:

    Preheat the oven to 425 and prep your potatoes by chopping into bite sized quarters. Spray them with nonstick spray and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 20 minutes. 

    Cut chicken into bite size pieces and add to the potatoes. Mix together your ranch ingredients and add to the potatoes and raw chicken. Stir everything together to coat evenly. 
    Once the chicken is fully cooked, approx. 20-25 minutes, top with cheese and cooked bacon. Continue cooking until the cheese has melted. Top with chopped green onions and enjoy! 

    As always it is best to weigh your final dish and divide by the total servings for the most accurate number. This dish makes 5 servings.
