BROCCOLI, RICE, CHEESE, AND CHICKEN CASSEROLE

This was a great addition to our Christmas meal. My daughter-in-law, who is a vegetarian, had 3 servings! The grand-kids may not have loved it, but they ate it, that’s a win! The adults asked me to keep this recipe for the future. I loved that it was truly homemade! Thank you!
