We've been talking about soups and how they can help your cooking. Many brands have the sodium and fat removed. Here is something that relies on soup - and is really very good. I use canned chicken often for this one because I can keep all the ingredients (except the broccoli) on my pantry shelf.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked cubed chicken, or canned chicken (drained)
  • 10 ounces package frozen broccoli florets, lightly steamed and drained
  • 1 can cream of broccoli or cream of chicken soup
  • 1 1/4 cups evaporated milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • dash of salt and pepper
  • 6 ounces uncooked pasta, such as rotini or bowties

How To Make easy chicken broccoli casserole

  • Step 1
    First, start pasta: cook pasta in a large pot of boiling water with a little salt and olive oil, until "al dente" - not too mushy. Drain and return to pot, cover and keep warm.
  • Step 2
    Stir together chicken, broccoli, soup, evaporated milk, poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Add to cooked pasta and stir to warm it all up.
  • Step 3
    Turn into a greased 2 1/2-qt casserole dish. Bake at 350 degrees about 20-25 minutes, until all is hot and bubbly.
  • Step 4
    May top with buttered breadcrumbs if desired, or shredded white cheese, during the last 10 minutes of cooking. Serve with a salad and you have a complete meal!
