Chicken and Black Bean Casserole image

This can use leftover chicken or chicken breasts. I usually make it the day after we have roast chicken. The recipe calls for baking, but the ingredients can also be added to a slow cooker and cooked on Low for 7 hours. We serve this with cheese, tortilla chips, sour cream, salsa, black olives, and guacamole.

I made this casserole in a Dutch oven over the campfire and it was amazing! The smoky flavor from the campfire added an extra depth of flavor to the dish.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this casserole with tofu instead of chicken. It was still very good, but I think it would be even better with chicken.

This casserole was very easy to make and it's a great way to use up leftover chicken. I used a rotisserie chicken and it turned out great. I also added some chopped green peppers and onions to the mix.

I made this casserole with ground turkey instead of chicken and it was just as good! I also added some chopped zucchini and carrots to the mix for some extra vegetables.

This casserole was a bit too spicy for my kids, but my husband and I loved it! I used a mild salsa, but I think next time I'll use a medium or hot salsa for some extra heat.

I made this casserole in a slow cooker and it turned out perfectly! I cooked it on low for 6 hours and the chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender. I served it over rice and it was a hit with everyone.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and seasonings to it, and it was much better. I also think it would be good with some shredded cheese on top.

This casserole was easy to make and very flavorful. I used canned black beans, but I think it would be even better with fresh or frozen black beans. I also added a can of corn to the mix for some extra sweetness.
