Low carb casseroles are a great way to get that comfort food feeling in without derailing your low carb diet. This low carb chicken casserole is loaded with spicy buffalo flavors for a super flavorful and filling dinner.
The new year is here, so I thought I’d pop in with one of my new favorite low carb casseroles! How many of you need some new keto recipes? How about new keto chicken recipes? I’m here for ya.
I don’t know about you, but I ate way too many Christmas cookies over the past month.
Friends and family kept dropping off plate after plate of cookies and treats. I loved every second of it. Until my pants started getting uncomfortably tight.
It’s time to get back on track for me. Exercise. Eating right. That sorta thing.
Ugh.
I love the keto diet, though I do struggle sticking with it. I go in spurts…a few weeks on, a few weeks off.
And okay, sometimes it’s more like a few months off. Who can relate?
Anyway, the biggest key for me staying keto is making foods that my whole family (the non-keto people) will like too. I don’t want to be cooking two dinners, you know?
This buffalo chicken casserole is one of those keto recipes that my whole family loves!
My cheeseburger casserole happens to be another one of those winning recipes, along with my chicken stuffed peppers, low carb meatloaf, and these buffalo chicken meatballs.
Keto has been gaining so much popularity lately. When I started it a couple years ago, it seemed like no one had ever heard of and everyone I told about it was super skeptical (and okay, even a little judgmental.) I’m glad to see it becoming more mainstream.
Tell me about your experience with keto in the comments! I’d love to hear if you’re new to this way of eating or if it’s something that you’ve been doing for a long time.
And, of course, if you try this recipe, I hope you’ll let me know what you think! You can drop a comment below or share a picture on Instagram and tag @bunsinmyoven!

This recipe is delicious. I used one third of a cup of sweet baby rays buffalo sauce instead of the Frank’s hot sauce. I topped it with sour cream. Will make again. Loved it.

Been doing keto for a bit over a year. Can’t deny the results I’m down 84 pounds but it can get hard cooking dinner. Thanks for making it a bit easier. I’m looking forward to trying your low carb recipes.

Made this tonight, didn’t have cream so i left it out and used colby jack instead of the mozzarella and cheddar. It was delicious!! Thank you for the recipe

I have made this recipe many many times and it is one of my favorites! I will often double the recipe and freeze some to have on those days when there isn’t a lot of time for cooking. I also add blue cheese crumbles to the chicken mixture and extra cheese, because who doesn’t love cheese?! Thanks for this wonderful recipe!

Omg!! So good..I did a couple of things different. I found a Chipotle Rancho packet that I used and I used Mexican blend cheese and the new taco bell zesty ranch cheese, so i used less of the powdered ranch. Love this and it will be added to my regular keto/low carb meals. Thank you!!
