It's a Keeper!

I'm married to a man who doesn't really like casseroles, stews and even most soups (except for chili and ham & bean) which makes it tough to cook something in advance for dinner or even cooking during the winter months.  That's not to say that I don't cook those things, because I do.....I like them and sometimes I hit upon a recipe that my husband says is a "keeper".

I found this recipe in an email that I get from Taste of Home and we like all the ingredients so I put it in my "to-try" basket of recipes.

Contest Winning Broccoli Chicken Casserole

It was a hit with both Fred and a good friend who came over to dinner that night.  Of course, the son wouldn't touch it, but what do you expect from someone who subsists on nothing but peanut butter, pizza, mac and cheese, French fries, cheeseburgers and grilled cheese sandwiches.

It was super easy to prepare.  I think the hardest part was roasting the chicken and waiting for it to cool in order to cut it up.   I served it with a salad and dinner rolls and there was enough leftovers for two more meals.   It was definitely reminiscent of Thanksgiving dinner.

It's a great quick weekday evening meal you should try sometime.
