Almost every big family dinner includes my mom's amazing heavenly potatoes. They are a gooey delicious mixture of hash browns, cream of mushroom soup and cheese. I wanted to make something similar but with chicken so I came up with creamy heavenly chicken potatoes that can be served all on its own. I love easy comfort meals that can be thrown together for busy weeknights and this does just that.

Try this! Heavenly chicken potato casserole

This dish is great for the kiddos.

It makes for a hearty weeknight meal that everyone will enjoy. The kiddos picked off their green onions and enjoyed the rest of the dish. Works for me! There are so many changes in the food industry all the time but I'm going to continue eating whole foods that work for me and our family. The heavenly chicken potatoes use whole milk cheese, sour cream and cream cheese and it was delicious! I've never been a fan of fat free and low fat foods but I know they have their purpose. We do typically use 2% milk for regular use and occasionally drink almond or coconut milk because it tastes good.
