Chicken and Broccoli Casserole - Gluten Free

Cathy41's Note:

A creamy chicken casserole with broccoli that goes great over rice. This was made up to meet fussy kid tastes and to be gluten free with very few ingredients on hand. Very simple, but it does take a little prep time to reduce the mushroom soup. Progresso makes a chunky, creamy mushroom soup that is gluten free. Great comfort food for gluten free diets without being bland.
