A healthy, comforting, and super simple meal to prepare for the whole family. As a mom, I don’t want to just serve anything, I want a healthy, family-friendly meal on our table. And this Chicken and Broccoli Cheesy Casserole deserve a 5 star because it’s not only delicious but it hits the jackpot for being one of the healthiest and family-friendly meals. My kids are super picky eaters, yet they love this. I always have a hard time convincing them to eat vegetables but they make an exemption for this dish. My kids said and I quote, “we like cheesy, we like chicken, but broccoli, noooo. But this is so good!” This is one of the most requested meals in the house, and I’ve never been so happy looking at my kids eating vegetables.

How to make Chicken and Broccoli Cheesy Casserole
