This is the type of food my husband loves. Simple comfort food. I like this type of food because it's simple to make and it's not a lot of ingredients and it's real food.
Cheesy Chicken and Broccoli Casserole
Adapted from Amy's Finer Things
Serves 2 adults and 2 small children at dinnertime with smallish leftovers for 1 day for 2 adults at lunchtime
2 C cooked rice (any rice would work)
2 C cooked, diced chicken (this is where those leftovers come in handy when you go and buy 10 whole chickens on sale at Whole Foods)
2 C steamed broccoli pieces (I steamed mine for about 1 minute)
1 carton of Cream of Celery soup (I use a soup by Pacific Natural Foods that's organic)
1 C shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 C whole milk
Salt and pepper to taste
Gently mix all of the ingredients in a bowl and then transfer to a 9 x 9 glass dish. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes.
You could get creative and add all sorts of spices to this, I think. Or you could do what my husband does and add that crazy Sriracha sauce to it as this is his condiment for nearly everything except coffee.
I'm linking this post to Fight Back Friday at FoodRenegade.com. Lots of good stuff there.
