What an absolutely delicious chicken casserole. The only thing I did differently was to not mix the broccoli into the rice, instead I placed it on top of the casserole before adding the shredded cheese. I find sometimes when using frozen broccoli that has been thawed it tends to be a bit "mushy" when mixed into other ingredients so opted for placing it on top. Will definitely be making this again. Thanks for a great recipe!!

    Made this last night. Boiled the chicken and shredded it. Omitted mushrooms because I don't like them. Added chicken seasoning to the chicken, and threw in a little bit o' chicken base for flavor. Baked in my stoneware casserole dish. Let me just say that this turned out SO DELICIOUS I could not WAIT to eat this for lunch today! It's not even 11:30 and I just had to dig in! And let me tell you what the BEST SUPRISE was --- the shredded cheese created a WONDERFUL crispy crust on top! DEEEEEELISH! (Boyfriend thought it was fab but a little bit too cheesy. Is there such thing?!?! He's crazy!) THANKS FOR SHARING! WILL MAKE AGAIN!

    I found it a little salty, but that would be easily solved by using a low sodium soup. I would also recommend that you drain the juice from the chicken before adding the other ingredients, as the final product was quite runny until it was chilled. I would like to try this without the velveeta as well... if anyone has tried this let me know how you did it. Serving it with a toasted garlic ciabbatta bun really topped it off.

    I made this recipe tonight, and it was excellent! I liked all the ingredients in this dish. I wouldn't change a thing. My son especially liked all the cheese.
