Chicken Broccoli Bacon Ranch Casserole with Shredded Tater Tot Cheddar Topping is a casserole with a creamy filling of soup, half and half, sour cream, chicken, bacon, broccoli, and ranch dressing.  It is topped with shredded tater tots and cheddar cheese, then baked until bubbly.

Everyone has a casserole that is an old family favorite.  Our family has served a version of a chicken and broccoli casserole since the 1970’s.  Last week I had all of these ingredients on hand and decided to make a new version of ours. I used a rotisserie chicken which is so convenient.

I like to serve casseroles that cover all food groups like meat, veggies, and dairy. This one is a delicious combination of all of these.
Bacon, ranch, potatoes and cheese are always a winner.

Here are the ingredients I used for this casserole.

Spray a 9 inch baking dish with no stick cooking spray and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Add the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, half and half, and hidden valley ranch dressing to a bowl.  Whisk together until smooth.

Fold in the broccoli, salt-pepper, bacon, and chicken.

Spread mixture into the baking dish.

In a microwave safe bowl, heat the tater tots 30 seconds at a time until they can be crumbled.  Combine with the cheese.

Sprinkle tater tot-cheddar topping evenly over the mixture.

Bake 25-30 minutes, or until cheese is melted and mixture is bubbly.
The tater tots will become crispy.

Serve hot.

This delicious chicken casserole can also be made with different vegetables. I have used asparagus instead of the broccoli.

I love creating casserole dishes that can be prepped ahead, and baked when you need them.

Chicken Bacon Ranch Potato Casserole is another great one to try.
