What’s up everyone? Happy Monday! I decided today I am going to do a nice simple dinner recipe that will be loved in everyone’s homes. An awesome Jalapeno Popper Chicken Casserole! I know I am always looking for something a little different to serve to the family but keeping it simple and not too expensive. This version of a Chicken Casserole is all of those things. Heat wise too you don’t have to worry about it since we are removing the seeds from the Jalapeno.. well unless you want to add to the heat lol then you can leave those seeds in. Heat, no heat either way this is a simple and quick dinner that I know anyone and every one in your family will love and let’s be honest cooking a family style one dish dinner is always a winning route for the person cooking it lol. So go ahead give this one a try. When you do make sure to take a pic and post it to my Facebook page!
