Chicken-Macaroni Casserole Full Recipe

Take your mac and cheese weeknight dinner to a whole new level with this veggie-kissed casserole. The crunchy cheese-and-bread-crumb topping makes a perfect finish for the creamy filling. This easy chicken and macaroni casserole starts with a box of shells and cheese and becomes a main dish casserole with the addition of diced cooked chicken and frozen-thawed vegetables. The casserole is topped with buttery bread crumbs and baked to homemade perfection. Adding some shredded cheddar cheese before the bread crumb topping adds a bit more flavor and texture, but is not necessary.
