Notes

Storage/Reheating: Store in the fridge for 3-4 days. To reheat, cover with foil and bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes.

Freezing: After baking and cooling, wrap tightly and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat as usual.

Substitutions: You can use rotisserie chicken for a quicker prep or add other vegetables like corn, green beans, or bell peppers for extra flavor. To make it gluten-free, swap the flour for a gluten-free blend.
