I can still remember the first time I made Broccoli, Rice, Cheese, and Chicken Casserole; it was a chilly evening, and I craved something warm and comforting.

When I pulled the casserole from the oven, golden cheese bubbling at the top, the whole house smelled heavenly. I love this recipe because it’s like a big hug in a dish—deliciously creamy, cheesy, and packed with nutrition.
