For best results

  • For extra protein, use Greek yogurt in place of some almond milk.
  • To save time, use rotisserie chicken or pre-cooked chicken breast.
  • Make it gluten-free by using gluten-free cream of chicken soup and gluten-free biscuit dough.

Variations

  • Add 1/2 cup chopped mushrooms for extra umami.
  • Swap chicken for turkey or tofu for a different protein option.
  • Top with crushed whole wheat crackers instead of biscuit dough for a crunchy twist.
