We all know how busy the week can get between work, school and activities—it’s a whirl! That’s when a great casserole really comes in handy. You can get a scrumptious dinner on the table, and spend some quality time with your family.

This recipe for Grandma’s Chicken Casserole is one of our fall staples, and the reason is simple: It’s made with cream of chicken soup, cheddar cheese and tender chicken, and then topped with buttery panko. It bakes up super creamy and crunchy. The ultimate comfort food!

For all that old-fashioned goodness, the chicken casserole really comes together with modern speed. Thanks to smart-shortcut ingredients like canned soup, shredded cheese and bread crumbs, you only need about 10 minutes of hands-on prep time to make it. What about the chicken? To save even more time and effort, pick up a rotisserie chicken at your local grocery store—you can eat it for dinner one night and then use the leftovers to make a casserole later in the week. Two dinners, done and dusted!
