Can I make a creamy keto chicken casserole ahead of time?

Yes, and it tastes just as good—if not better—the next day. Assemble the casserole, cover it tightly, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking. You can also freeze it (before or after baking) for future meals. Just let it thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.

How many carbs are in a serving of creamy keto chicken casserole?

Most servings contain between 3 to 5 grams of net carbs, depending on your specific ingredients. Using low-carb vegetables like broccoli and cheese without fillers will help you stay within keto limits.

What’s the best cheese to use in a creamy keto chicken casserole?

Cheddar and mozzarella are reliable choices for melt and flavor, while cream cheese adds creaminess. Feel free to experiment with gouda, Parmesan, or goat cheese for extra flair.

Can I substitute ingredients to make this casserole dairy‑free or gluten‑free?

Definitely. Use coconut cream or dairy-free cheese alternatives to replace cream and cheese. This casserole is already gluten-free, but double-check seasonings and sauces for hidden wheat or starches.
