Okay…so I don’t remember my Grandma{s} making anything like this growing up, but it definitely reminds me of something a grandma would whip up. It’s SUCH a comfort food it’s ridiculous. I won’t begin to tell you how many servings I helped myself to, nor will I share the quickness in which it was devoured. This is the PERFECT makes-me-feel-so-cozy meal and we’ll DEFINITELY be eating this again…SOON!!
CREAMY CHICKEN & BROCCOLI CASSEROLE
3 chicken breasts, cooked & shredded
2 cans of cream of chicken soup
1 cup of mayo
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup colby & monterrey jack cheese
1 bag frozen broccoli,thawed and chopped
salt & pepper to taste
Cook chicken & shred. Meanwhile, chop the broccoli. Okay…so we used frozen broccoli, and while I know they make the frozen chopped broccoli, the store was OUT. SO, I chopped my own…and it didn’t take any time.
Now, mix all ingredients together.
Transfer mixture to a lightly greased 2 qt. casserole dish & heat oven to 375.
Cook for 30 minutes or until bubbly.
And the most important part…SERVE WITH RICE!!!! Omg…SO AMAZING!!!!!!! This is definitely a meal where the leftovers are *almost* better!! These pictures are making my mouth water…time to eat!!!

i wish my hubs would eat broccoli, because this is one of my favorite meals. oh well.
Just went to the store to get all the goodies for this recipe! I am a huge fan of easy peasy casseroles, and I am excited to try this tonight for dinner! Love your blog :)
I am a friend of Meredith N and I am loving your blog. Making this casserole asap. Love your stuff and love all my new recipes. keep it up girl!! Leslie
I'm going to have to make this on a smaller scale for my little one. This has all the foods she loves!
This looks absolutely delicious! However I am a beginner when it comes to cooking - I never had anyone teach me how - so I have a silly question. How should I cook the chicken? And about how many servings does this recipe make? Thanks!
would love to make ! Wish I had the Wight watchers points for it LOL
Can you subs sour cream for the mayo ?

My mom used to make this ALL the time! It was her go-to potluck dinner dish :)
Instead of mayo you can use plain Greek Yogurt, like Chobani.
To cook the chicken, just boil it in water until done. Looks like it's cooked in a standard cake pan, probably makes 6-8 servings.
This looks and sounds so delish!! WE are a dairy free household and I'm thinking I can make it dairy free :) I may mix cooked rice into it before cooking!! YUM!!
can this be done in a slow cooker? how long and what setting? I made it the other day and it was LUSH!el
I just made this! It was so good :) Reminds me of one my mom made growing up! I will say it needs salt and pepper to boost the flavor. Thanks for sharing!! Gonna try some of your other recipes!!
I don't eat Mayo do you think I could use sour cream instead??
Sweet Sassiness! (Is that a word?)
I just made this and it is wonderful!
We get our freezer stocked 2 times a year by this wonderful company. The chicken breasts are way too big for one meal (there's only usually 2 of us) so into the freezer the leftovers go. Just perfect for a casserole!
I substituted some sour cream and cream cheese because I didn't have real mayo and was concerned with miracle whip.
Oh my my my it is heavenly!
Trying this out tonight... just a little tip, if you're lazy like me, you can buy a rotisserie chicken and skin it/shred it rather than separately preparing chicken.
This recipe is similar to one I've been making for years. The recipe I have calls for curry powder and some lemon juice. I leave the chicken and broccoli in bite size pieces and stir with the soup mixture. The cheese goes on top. Yummy!!!
I have made this casserole for years, with a few additions, 1 T Curry powder, plus 1/2 C sour cream. We have always served it in Pepperidge Farm Patty Shells. We also call it "Chicken Curry". Always a hit, so easy to make ahead. I always make it when I have invited one of my children's boyfriends or girlfriends over, and we are meeting them for the first time. This dish helps me enjoy my company and I know this casserole is always a crowd pleaser!
