Chicken and Broccoli

Recipe #395370 | 45 min | 15 min prep | add private note

This is a delicious warm casserole that our mother made for us growing up. It is very easy and inexpensive with just a few ingredients that I usually have in my cupboard. I have modified it to be healthier and most ingredients can be swapped for lighter options. We always serve it over wild rice, it really adds to the dish.
