Broccoli Casserole with Chicken will quickly become your favorite recipe!
Some nights I just do not want to make dinner. Some nights I don’t make dinner, let’s be honest. …Sorry honey. Ha! But this is definitely going to be my go to meal on those nights because it literally takes less than 30 minutes to make. We’ve always got cheese, pasta and believe it or not broccoli. Broccoli is my son’s favorite vegetable…and I have no idea how, but we definitely lucked out on that one. He loves his fruits and vegetables, and he eats them every day. So lucky! There must be something to feeding your baby vegetables before fruits, because that’s what he did.

Thank you Linda. Yes, we love this recipe. Definitely a favorite! Happy New Year to you too!
My son might actually eat broccoli this way. Thanks for sharing on the Creative K. Kids Tasty Tuesdays Linky Party. We hope you will join us next week.
Can’t wait to try this! We have a chicken, broccoli and rice casserole but I love the idea of using macaroni; my kids are more apt to eat it that way!
