I looked up chicken and brocolli without rice as I am eating lower carbs. I am soo glad that I found your recipe! I didn't have any cream of mushroom soup on hand so I used real mushrooms, sautéed with the onions and added Sour cream and cheese to that mixture. We had leftover hot breast (hot wing sauce and garlic on Chicken breast) so I diced that and added it over the brocolli. I omitted the croutons since lowering carbs and added a few shakes of red pepper flakes. It is wonderful! This will be our go to leftover hot breast dish!

My whole family loved it! All three kids, plus my husband, plus me! I've tried a LOT of broccoli casseroles, and this is the first one that has passed the whole-family-took-seconds test! I followed as directed, but used "light" sour cream, and I also sauteed the minced onions in butter before adding them. Mmmmm. Delish! It also looks quite pretty. And, it is super easy! Thanks!

I cooked professionally for about 25 years and now I'm retired and enjoy being home and making cookies for the grandchildren and other family members.
I love preparing and cooking food. This time of year (winter) its Soups and Stews, but I certainly don't limit myself to that because in the summer my favorites turn toward salads both vegetable and fruit.
My most often requested dishes are Green Chile, Italian Tortollini Soup and a cookie recipe.
