-
In a large skillet, cook sliced mushrooms in 2 tablespoons of Miracle Whip dressing over medium-high heat until tender and liquid has evaporated.
-
Stir in flour, basil, salt, and pepper, cooking for about 1 minute to cook the raw flour taste.
-
Gradually add milk, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens into a smooth sauce.
-
Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup of Miracle Whip dressing, the cooked chicken, thawed mixed vegetables, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
-
Spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture evenly into the prepared casserole dish.
-
In a separate bowl, stir the remaining 1/2 cup of Miracle Whip dressing into the hot mashed potatoes until well combined.
-
Spread the potato mixture over the chicken filling in the casserole dish.
-
Broil until the potato topping is heated through and the edges begin to turn golden brown.
-
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese over the top and broil for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
