BUFFALO CHICKEN AND POTATO CASSEROLE

In the midst of last week’s marathon of sugar I found myself only wanting chips and salsa at the end of the day. As you can imagine, with 5 kids our Halloween loot was substantial. I’ve been finding wrappers in the dryer that snuck through the wash, in every crevasse of the couch, and under pillowcases. Not my own pillowcase. But that’s a good idea.

My own laundry is no exception. It’s mostly Reese’s and Twix wrappers with a couple of Whopper wrappers in between. What is the purpose of procreating if not solely for claiming my kids’ Reese’s? Can I get an Amen? I’ll take your silence as yes. Your mouth’s probably full of a Reese’s.

Anyhooo. In order to offset all of the sugar, lately I’ve been making a lot of savory recipes. We are a buffalo lovin’ family, so I knew this Buffalo Chicken and Potato casserole would be a hit with my family and my in-laws who were in town.

You want to dice the potatoes into 1/2 inch cubes so that they roast quickly. They are tossed in a buffalo sauce with lots of seasonings. If you’re going to error on the side of how big to cut them, error on the smaller side.

I was skeptical of how much seasoning is in this but trust me, it’s perfect. I’m guilty of under seasoning everything and this was so flavorful. I’m one who can take or leave potatoes and I loved these.

You’re welcome. I saved you from a picture of raw chicken on top of the potatoes, but basically after you’ve roasted the potatoes you add chicken and cook it until done. Then you top it with a whole lot of cheese, bacon, and onions.

I made this for my company in town so I quickly snapped a picture before we ate but what I really should have shown is that you want to serve this with a drizzle of blue cheese or ranch if you prefer. Oh my gosh. I went back for seconds and thirds. I couldn’t stop eating it.
