    Whoever said you can't have comfort food without gluten and cheese had it all wrong. Actually, I don't know if anyone ever said that but it's probably a safe assumption. Creamy chicken and biscuits casserole is a dish my best friend taught me to make years ago. It was one of our favorites for a long time until gluten and dairy were off the menu.

    I never attempted to make a new version safe for me to eat until now. However, not long after my gluten intolerance diagnosis, I used my friend's original chicken and biscuits recipe as inspiration for a baked biscuits and gravy dish. I had the gravy down (it's the same one I used in my biscuits and gravy recipe on this blog) but I used a gluten free biscuit recipe I found online that wasn't very good.

    Now that I have a great biscuit recipe, I can not only attempt the biscuits and gravy casserole again but I also have one of our favorite recipes back on the menu!

    It wasn't just the biscuits I needed to replace though. I was also missing cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese which I was able to replace with Daiya products. I know, I use their products in so many recipes and I swear this isn't sponsored. They're just perfect substitutes!

    I also needed to figure out how to make dairy free, gluten free cream of mushroom soup. I spent way too much brainstorming how to do that then asked a friend how she makes hers. After all that, I finally remembered I made a cream of mushroom soup for my spinach artichoke dip casserole! Apparently I now have so many blog recipes that I don't remember them all anymore.

    Long story short (Ha! Kidding. That was a lot of text.) - the recipe turned out perfect. If you've never had creamy chicken and biscuits casserole, it's kind of like a pot pie except creamier. And cheesier. And with thin biscuits instead of pie crust. Pot pies are good but I'd take this over a chicken pot pie any day.

    A note on the biscuits. I usually make 6 biscuits per batch of dough but I thought they needed to be thinner so I did 8. They don't look very impressive considering the thinness and the fact that they don't brown on the outside or flake on the inside but they are so good. They have great texture and flavor so give them a shot!

    One final thought - enjoy this recipe because I have dessert after dessert after dessert coming up. And probably more dessert after that. I've just been in one of those moods (translation: I have a sweet tooth) and want to try some new things.

    Description

    A gluten free, dairy free version of creamy chicken and biscuits. A creamy, cheesy mixture of chicken, veggies, and corn are topped with bisuits and baked.


    Ingredients

    • 1 tsp fat of choice for greasing dish
    • 3 chicken breasts, diced into bite sized pieces
    • ½ tsp salt, divided
    • 1 can full fat coconut milk
    • ⅓ C chicken stock
    • ½ C mushrooms, diced small (or ¾ C sliced mushrooms if you want large pieces in the finished dish)
    • ½ tsp pepper
    • 1 tsp dried thyme
    • 4 oz dairy free cream cheese, cut into chunks
    • 1 Tbsp tapioca starch
    • 1 Tbsp cold tap water
    • 2 C frozen veggie blend with corn (or whatever blend you like. Mine had corn, peas, carrots, and green beans).
    • ½ C shredded dairy free cheddar, plus additional for topping
    • 1 batch multi-purpose dough (wait until step 6 to prepare the dough)

    Instructions

    1. Preheat oven to 375ºF and grease a 9x13 glass casserole dish with your choice of fat.
    2. Season the diced chicken with about ¼ teaspoon salt and spread it evenly in the bottom of the dish. Bake for 20 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked. Stir halfway through cooking or every 10 minutes if more time is needed.Creamy Chicken and Biscuits Casserole | A gluten free, dairy free version of creamy chicken and biscuits.

    3. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan combine the coconut milk, chicken stock, mushrooms, pepper, thyme, and additional salt to taste (depending on how salty your broth is. Remember you will add dairy free cheese later which is somewhat salty.) Bring contents to a boil then reduce to a simmer for about 10 minutes.
    4. After the coconut milk mixture is finished simmering, whisk in the cream cheese until melted. In a small bowl, whisk together the tapioca starch and cold tap water until dissolved. Bring the pot back up to a simmer and whisk in the starch mixture to slightly thicken. Remove from heat.
    5. When the chicken is done baking, drain off any excess liquid and stir in the frozen veggie & corn mixture and the shredded cheese. Pour the contents of the saucepan into the casserole dish and stir well. Bake for 15 minutes.Creamy Chicken and Biscuits Casserole | A gluten free, dairy free version of creamy chicken and biscuits.

    6. Meanwhile, make the dough according to the recipe. Dust a clean work surface and rolling pin with additional tapioca starch. Roll out the dough but keep it somewhat thick - you should be able to cut out 6 circles using a coffee mug then roll it out again for an additional 2 circles.Creamy Chicken and Biscuits Casserole | A gluten free, dairy free version of creamy chicken and biscuits.

    7. Top the baked chicken mixture with the biscuits you just cut out and top with additional cheese. Bake an additional 10-13 minutes or until biscuits are fully cooked. Note that the biscuits will NOT brown so be careful not to over bake them.Creamy Chicken and Biscuits Casserole | A gluten free, dairy free version of creamy chicken and biscuits.

    Notes

    Prep time includes time to prepare the biscuit dough since you will be making it while the rest of the recipe bakes.

    About Meagan

    I started out with a passion for creating unique recipes and decorating cakes. In June of 2012, I discovered I was not only severely gluten intolerant but also, many of the foods I was eating I simply couldn't include in my diet anymore. Fortunately, my love for trying new recipes, ingredients, and cooking methods made re-learning how to cook seem more like a fun challenge than an unfortunate circumstance. I'm so happy to say that my dietary restrictions haven't stopped me from doing what I love. I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as I do.

    I almost didn’t make this into a casserole becau I almost didn’t make this into a casserole because the sauce and pasta combined made a delicious side dish on their own! @beldolcefood #sponsored my most recent blog post and provided me with their new gluten free fusilli and penne to try out. I used the fusilli in this recipe and the sauce is a creamy, cheesy enchilada sauce made from just 3 ingredients.
.
I ended up adding taco meat, fire roasted tomatoes, corn, black beans, and dairy free cheese to make a taco noodle casserole. Then we ate it all and I made it again! This is one of those recipes that will be going in our regular meal rotation.
.
This is a pretty versatile recipe. It can be made vegan just by leaving out the meat and it’s just as good. And as I said earlier, the pasta with just the sauce makes a really good side dish. You can also top it with whatever you like such as cilantro, jalapeños, sour cream, scallions, or salsa.

    I’ll just say it - I’m one of those bloggers t I’ll just say it - I’m one of those bloggers that makes cakes for their blogs “birthdays”. Or uses the blog birthdays as an excuse to make yet another cake recipe....yeah, that’s probably more accurate.
.
Definitely felt like I needed a good excuse for this one because it’s my fifth variation of gooey butter cake! However, my site is seven years old so maybe I should have had seven gooey butter cakes ready to go? Guess I’d better get caught up before year eight 😉
.
Anyways, I really enjoyed this carrot cake variation of gooey butter cake. The cake layer/crust swaps out the yellow cake mix with spice cake mix and I added in some shredded carrots and raisins. I kept the “gooey” top layer the same except that I topped it with a sprinkle of cinnamon and additional raisins before baking.

    Couldn’t decide which to use on his birthday inv Couldn’t decide which to use on his birthday invites so got a big trifold card and used almost all of them 😅 This is the first time he’s cooperated (sort of) for his “milestone block” photos since he learned to roll over so it’s been a long time!

.
CARAMEL STUFFED CRISPY RICE TREATS
.
INGREDIENTS
.
• ¼ C dairy free butter, divided
• 4 C mini marshmallows (regular and vegan both work), divided
• 6 C gluten free rice cereal *see notes*
• 1 tsp vanilla extract, divided
• 10-11 oz dairy free chewy caramels
• 11.25 oz can sweetened condensed coconut milk
.
DIRECTIONS
.
1. Melt 2 tablespoons of the dairy free butter in a medium sauce pan over medium-low heat. Add 2 cups of marshmallows and stir until they are melted with no lumps.
2. Remove from heat and stir in ½ tsp of vanilla then gently fold in 3 cups of cereal until it is well-combined with the marshmallows.
3. Using wet hands, press this mixture evenly into the bottom of a 7x11 inch casserole dish and set aside.
4. Unwrap the caramels and add them along with the sweetened condensed coconut milk to a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir often to avoid burning. Once this has turned to a completely smooth sauce, pour over the cereal layer.
5. Make your top cereal layer by repeating steps 1 and 2. Distribute this evenly over the caramel layer and pat down with wet hands.
6. Once the treats have cooled down, they will firm up and hold their shape when cut. Cut into squares and serve.
.
NOTES
.
• Potential allergens contained in this recipe may vary due to brands of ingredients used, product reformulations, etc. Please verify that all your ingredients are safe for you to consume and always be mindful of allergen cross contamination while cooking.
• Double check that the cereal you use is gluten free. At least one brand carries 2 different versions of rice cereal and only one is GF.
• Don't make both cereal layers in one large batch then divide it up. The top layer will cool and firm up before you can layer it on which will make the caramel seep out when you press it down.
