This chicken and stuffing casserole is creamy and comforting on a cool winter evening — the whole family will love it! The crispy topping on this old-fashioned casserole is easy to make with a quick-cooking stuffing mix. A store-bought rotisserie chicken is required, but if you have leftover chicken on hand, use it! Leftovers are yummy, too.
