Delicious and Cheesy Doritos Chicken Casserole

This Doritos Chicken Casserole is definitely a favorite at home. There aren’t alot of meals here that we ALL enjoy (too many picky-eaters) but this is one of them. It’s also very different. You can’t really find this on any restaurant menu ever.

And yes, you read the title correctly. This casserole’s star ingredient is Doritos.

There’s also multiple delivery methods to serve this Doritos Chicken Casserole. My daughter and I will eat this meal over white rice. While my husband skips the rice and just eats this as a hot tip with chips. So you can try it both ways and see which you prefer.
