01 - 5-6 cups mashed potatoes, homemade or store-bought

08 - Drizzle the desired amount of gravy over the casserole and serve immediately.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Ensure mashed potatoes are warm before assembling for optimal consistency.
02 - Homemade popcorn chicken can be used as a substitute for chicken tenders.
