A fork lifts a cheesy Lazy Dayzy Casserole with melted cheese, green onions, and broccoli from a baking dish.

Lazy Dayzy Casserole

On my lazy days this is my go to recipe that everybody loves! I like to call this my Lazy Dayzy Casserole! And it's flavored with chives and ranch seasoning, so everybody is going to love it and nobody is going to miss the carbs. However, if you want a little starch, serve it on top of white rice, mashed potatoes, or even a baked potato would be super delicious! Actually, you could even throw some baked potatoes in the oven and stuff it with this casserole. We're going to make this super easy with a store bought rotisserie chicken, some broccoli florets, ranch seasoning, and a few more creamy extras that you most likely already have on hand. Who knows? Maybe this will become a part of your weekly rotation! Let's make it!

Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 6 slices of bacon
  • 12 oz bag of microwavable fresh broccoli florets
  • 1 rotisserie chicken shredded
  • ¼ cup green onions sliced & divided
  • 8 oz sour cream
  • 4 oz whipped chive cream cheese about half of a 7.5 oz container
  • ¼ cup milk
  • Half a packet of hidden valley ranch seasoning
  • 8 oz shredded double cheddar cheese blend

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F and cook your bacon for about 15 - 20 minutes or until crispy.
  • While the bacon is cooking, take a bag of microwavable fresh broccoli florets, pierce the bag with a fork, and microwave it for only half the time it says to microwave it on the package (I microwaved mine for 2.5 minutes). Once the broccoli is done or green and crisp, take scissors and cut the broccoli up into smaller pieces (as small as you would like them to be).
  • Grease a baking dish and add the broccoli pieces to the bottom of the baking dish. Next, add the shredded rotisserie chicken in an even layer over the broccoli. Then, sprinkle about ⅛ cup of sliced green onions evenly over the chicken layer.
  • In a measuring cup add sour cream, whipped chive cream cheese, milk, and the hidden valley ranch seasoning. Whisk that together until fully combined and smooth. Add that creamy mixture to the baking dish and smooth it out so it's an even layer over the chicken, broccoli, and green onions.
  • Now, take your crispy bacon, chop it up, and sprinkle it evenly over top of the casserole. Then, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Lastly, sprinkle over ⅛ cup of sliced green onions. Bake the casserole in the oven at 375°F for 25 minutes. Enjoy!
