Creamy Chicken Broccoli Casserole – For an easy weeknight meal the whole family will love, check this creamy, dreamy casserole out. A family favorite for sure. Enjoy!

This easy-peasy casserole is one I make for family and friends since they request it often. They adore this dish. It’s also a great dish for company and potluck dinners. White meat chicken with fresh broccoli in a creamy sauce that’s very similar to Alfredo Sauce. This dish however has is a bit lighter and when you bake as a casserole the top gets a little crispy and just perfect. Serve with a green salad and some garlic bread for a wonderful weeknight or anytime meal. Here’s another choice for some yummy garlic bread made with crescent rolls.
