I haven’t had numerous caprese salads this year yet, so I thought how could I get in my love for caprese at dinnertime? I directly taught caprese casserole! That is where this keto chicken caprese casserole comes in to play.
Add all the caprese favorites: cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, greens, and vinegar. But add in chicken and more of a creamy texture to hold the casserole together. The leafy greens that are tossed in oil and vinegar truly bring out the creaminess of the caprese casserole.
