Almost every child who leaves house longs for their mother’s kitchen, and if they are lucky enough and their mother really loves to cook then this is longing on an even higher level.
Although she always tried to surprise us with new flavors and combinations, I will always really long for those simple dishes … the kind of food that we often eat and that she prepares with such a crazy ease,  because just like that, today is the day for easy Casserole dish, the dish that is so simple that it doesn’t need a recipe.
My list of her dishes is huge, but one recipe will forever smell of mom and her love given to us through her cooking for years and that is the Loaded Baked  Chicken Potato Casserole.
I often prepare this dish myself but I never expect the taste that I remember from my home. When I wish to eat that, then She steps on stage and again, for the umpteenth time, brings me back to the round table in the living room.
It’s nice to make Sunday dinner special and spend that time with the closest people….Some meals are just like that, slow and scented with linden that is brought by wind, smiling and cheerful….

Enjoy !

        I think it’s common sense that it’s 1 1/2 pounds with 1 pound of chicken I sped up the cook time by Browning potatoes and chicken just a little and substituted sour cream for whipping cream!
        Perfect!! Also used smoked paprika!

    I know this is and older post,but i love this recipe and I haven’t even tried it. One it has no canned cream of whatever soup and no cream cheese. I can’t wait to try it.

    This recipe is delicious!!, I also am not to crazy about cream of mushroom and the amount of heavy cream is not overpowering. I semi cooked the bacon as suggested, great tip!! I will have to share this at a potluck.

    Made this tonight and it was good! I cooked the bacon before and chopped a little yellow onion to add. I agree I think tipping it with sour cream after is delicious

    I LOVEEEE this recipe but instead of green onions i use peppers and onions! So good but mines come out watery but still so tasteful ☺️ Any tips on how to make it less watery? This is my second time making it and i used less heavy cream than the first time and it still came out water
