I've always found chicken casseroles that I like, but never have loved. So, one day I was looking through some chicken casserole recipes and combined ingredients from different ones, as well as took some ingredients out and added some of my own. WE LOVE IT! Hope you do too! :-)

Lindsay's Cheesy Broccoli & Chicken Casserole With Crunchy Topping.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Casseroles are always at the top of our minds when we need an easy dinner option. This cheesy broccoli and chicken casserole will be on that mental list. It's an all-in-one dinner - chicken, vegetables, and rice all in one dish. Wild rice adds much more flavor than traditional white rice. It's filled with tender and juicy chicken. On top is a cracker and poppyseed mixture that, once baked, creates a nice crunchy texture. Your family will gobble up this easy dinner.
