When Chicken and Rice Night collides with TACO TUESDAY you get to enjoy this scrumptious Dump & Bake Taco Chicken!

Love the easy and convenience of dump and bake chicken and rice casserole.

This variation calls for a can of cream of poblano soup, and if you can’t find that at your store, you can swap it for cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup instead. 

Once the chicken and rice are baked, you can add your favorite “taco toppings” like cheese, sour cream, salsa, pico de gallo, or guacamole! 

Enjoy!
