This savory, satisfying casserole is real comfort food that freezes so well. Thaw it in the fridge overnight then pop it into the oven when you get home the next day for a super easy supper. —Kersten Campbell, Pullman, Washington

Ingredients

  • 6 large baking potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1-1/2 cups water
  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 cups sour cream
  • 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
