This recipe combines everything you love about a loaded baked potato with the convenience of a family-friendly, casserole dish. I’m always one for a meal that just requires me to chop, assemble and bake, and this recipe certainly checks that box. Also, I’ve made sure to include chicken in this recipe so that the dish becomes a balanced meal, providing protein, fat and carbohydrates while taking into consideration healthy portions. Enjoy!
