Chicken, Broccoli, Cheese Casserole

So Quick and Easy....

1-2 (depending on size) cooked chicken breast, chopped
1 10.5-oz can cream of chicken
3 cups cooked rice (you might want more or less depending on how much "filler" you like in your casserole)
2 cups cooked broccoli, chopped (fresh or frozen works, but I like fresh the best)
1/2 cup shredded cheese (whichever kind of cheese you like, coby jack is our favorite)

Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Boil the rice first, according to package directions, because this takes the longest (unless you use minute rice.) Cook the chicken breast however you'd like (I usually boil them with salt and pepper.) Chop broccoli to bite sized pieces and steam or boil it. Chop the chicken finely and mix with the can of cream of chicken soup. Pour the cooked rice into a 13 X 9 pan, spread evenly. Spread chicken/soup mixture over the rice. Spread broccoli over the chicken/soup mixture. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the top. Place in 350 degree oven for 5-10 minutes, until it is warmed through and the cheese is melted.

I'm Back

Sorry for the long absence life sure does get in the way when you have three small kids....I will work my hardest to keep this blog updated with fun new recipes for you all to try!  My goal for the next few post are quick and simple recipes so you aren't in your kitchen all night long. So with that said.....

COOK EAT AND ENJOY!!!

Taco Baked Buns

I made this for my kids the other night all I can say is it was a big hit....and can I say EASY!!!! Really I loved this one.

1 lb. hamburger, cooked with salt, pepper, onion powder
1 can black beans
1 can diced tomatoes
1 small can tomato sauce
1/2 pkg. taco seasoning

Cook together all ingredients and spread on buns or French bread, then sprinkle with grated cheese and bake for 5 min. at 350 degrees (until cheese is toasted).

I topped mine with fresh lettuce and more tomatoes sour cream and salsa. Another thing you can add before you bake is corn.  I try to sneak in as many veggies as possible for my kids.
