Ingredients

  • 3 cups frozen hash browns thawed slightly (about 8 ounces)
  • 2-3 cups chicken cooked and cut up
  • ¼ cup bacon bits
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 10.5 ounce can cream of chicken soup condensed
  • ½ cup milk
  • 12 ounces frozen mixed vegetables thawed slightly
  • ⅛ teaspoon dried thyme

For topping

  • 12-14 Ritz crackers about half a typical sleeve
  • ½ cup cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • In a large bowl, combine hash browns, chicken, bacon, 1 cup of cheese, mixed vegetables, condensed soup, milk, and thyme.

  • Lightly grease a 7x11” (or similar sized) baking dish and add the hash brown mixture. Spread evenly.
  • Crush the Ritz crackers and place in a small bowl. Add the ½ cup cheddar cheese and stir to combine. Sprinkle evenly over the top of the hash brown mixture.

  • Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes with the foil on.
  • Remove the foil and bake an additional 15 minutes with the foil off.
  • Remove casserole from oven and let it rest 10-15 minutes before serving.

Notes

To make a 9x13 pan, double all ingredients, and follow the same instructions for baking. You could also double the recipe and make 2 smaller casseroles. Place each half in an 8x8-inch pan. One of those pans can be a disposable foil pan that you tightly cover with foil, label, and place in the freezer for a future meal.
