Comfort food has been the name of the game over the past few weeks and months. I’ve been using my oven a lot more than usual. I guess we could all use the comfort of a good home cooked meal during these trying times. And there isn’t much that’s more comforting than a nice warm serving of this Chicken & Cornbread Casserole!

This casserole starts off with a hearty mixture of chicken and vegetables and it then topped off with an easy homemade cornbread. The end result is something similar to a potpie, but with more of a southern twist with the cornbread.

I kept this dish light by using chicken breasts and subbing unsweetened almond milk in for regular milk. I also used an unsalted chicken stock. Other than that, this dish is pretty simple and straight forward. It’s fairly fool-proof and perfect for a weeknight meal.

This casserole, as with most casseroles, is a meal in a bowl. No need for sides here! Veggies, meat, and carb all in one delicious bite!
