Notes

You can prep the filling a day in advance and store it in the fridge. Leftovers freeze well for up to three months; reheat in the oven for the best texture. Feel free to customize the vegetables; corn and green beans also work great. Use rotisserie chicken to save time and enhance flavor. For a special touch, sprinkle fresh herbs like parsley before serving.
