Chicken and Broccoli Casserole

Some days I don't feel like cooking, but the family has to eat. Right? There are so many ways to take recipes and simplify them. Create your own short cuts. This recipe calls for chicken breasts to be cooked and cubed. I buy the pre-cooked chicken for casseroles sometimes. It omits a hot, time consuming part of the recipe. You can quickly microwave the broccoli using the package directions. The rest is dumping ingredients in a dish. Voila!



4 boneless, skinless, Chicken Breast, cooked and cubed
3 packages frozen Broccoli
1 cup Mayonnaise
1 T Lemon Juice
1 can Cream of Chicken Soup
1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup
½ t Basil
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 cup Cheddar Cheese, grated
Bread Crumbs, toasted

Cook and drain broccoli. Place in baking dish. Put chicken on top of broccoli. Mix mayonnaise, lemon, soup, basil, salt and pepper. Spread over chicken and broccoli. Sprinkle on cheese and top with bread crumbs. Bake at 325 for 20 minutes.

    Sorry you didn't like it. If your family doesn't like the mayo flavor, leave it out next time and just add some more soup.

    Tried it tonight! Added noodles and left out the mayonnaise. Cooked raw chicken with Dales and meat tenderizer beforehand. Was a hit with my family!!!
