broccoli-chicken casserole

As I was looking through my Mom’s recipes and her Basalla Family Slovak Cookbook, I stumbled across this recipe. It is easy, nutritious (well, it's made with broccoli and chicken) and tasty! Please enjoy!!  I cut the recipe in half, because I am only feeding 2 folks now - so please note, you can certainly double it back up, or even make it larger!  Also, you can exchange the broccoli with asparagus (or some other vegetable) if you desire.

INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked rice (I use Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice)
1 package (10 oz.) chopped broccoli
2 cups chicken (cooked, shredded)
1 can cream of chicken soup
½ cup mayonnaise
4 oz. cheddar cheese, shredded
½  cup toasted bread crumbs

DIRECTIONS
1.    Mix all first 6 ingredients together.
2.    Spread into 13” x 9” pan.
3.    Top with toasted bread crumbs.
4.    Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 35 minutes.

God Bless, Peg
