Chicken Broccoli Divan

Comments
I believe this recipe initially came from one of those checkout aisle magazines that Betty Crocker and Pillsbury both publish and I have a hard time resisting for some reason.  I think they’re laced with something.  I’ve been making it for quite a while and no longer had a source as a result!  

If you prefer a soupier texture, you can add more soup.  If you want something cheesier, add more cheese.  And the same goes for the chicken.  This is a very easy recipe to modify and tweak based on your own preferences!  I’ve made rice on the side numerous times when I make this and I’ve also baked it in the Dutch oven over top the rice.  I think both ways are delicious.
