BROCCOLI, RICE, CHEESE, AND CHICKEN CASSEROLE
This is a delicious twist to broccoli, rice, and cheese casserole, and is VERY easy to make. You can also cut this in half. I use the 1 can cream of mushroom soup when I make half. You can also leave out the onion. It just gives it a little added flavor, but is still very good without it.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality chicken. Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs that are fresh or thawed. You can also use cooked chicken, such as rotisserie chicken, to save time.
- Use fresh broccoli. Fresh broccoli has a bright green color and crisp florets. Avoid broccoli that is wilted or yellowed.
- Make sure your Alfredo sauce is creamy and flavorful. Use a good quality Alfredo sauce or make your own from scratch. You can also add grated Parmesan cheese or other seasonings to taste.
- Don't overcook the chicken or broccoli. The chicken should be cooked through but still tender, and the broccoli should be tender but still slightly crunchy.
- Serve the casserole hot. Chicken and broccoli Alfredo casserole is best served hot, right out of the oven. You can garnish it with fresh parsley or grated Parmesan cheese.
Conclusion:
Chicken and broccoli Alfredo casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken and broccoli. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
