Broccoli, Chicken & Rice Casserole

Made one of my daughter's favorite meals tonight.  Chicken with broccoli, cheese and rice.

What makes this so tasty is the buttery Ritz Cracker crumb topping.  I make this same recipe for our traditional Christmas dinner, but I leave out the chicken, rice & sour cream., its just "broccoli casserole".

This is the recipe I follow:

2-3 C cooked chicken
2 cups cooked rice
1 pkg frozen broccoli, boiled and drained.
2 C cheddar cheese (divided)
1 can cream of celery or cream of mushroom soup.
1/2 C mayo
1 egg
1/2 C finely chopped onion (optional)
1/4 sour cream
Salt & pepper to taste
Lowry's season salt to taste
1 "sleeve" of Ritz crackers crushed and mixed with 1 T melted butter

Mix all ingredients together except 1 C cheese and Ritz crackers.  Pour into a 9x13 prepared pan. Top with remaining 1 C cheese and Ritz cracker crumbs.  Bake 350 for 30 minutes.

Stuffed Bell Pepper Casserole

Every other Wednesday night I bring food to our mom's bible study at church on Wednesday nights.  I love to try to recipes on these nights because I have lots of taste-testers.  Tonight I tried a new recipe called "Stuffed Bell Pepper Casserole".

To me, this tasted exactly like a stuffed bell pepper.  I normally do not put corn in my stuffed bell peppers, but it was good in this dish.

If you would like to make it, the recipe can be found here.

Breakfast Casserole

My girls had a HUGE sleepover last night.  I figured the girls would be hungry, so in addition to the cereal, donuts and muffins, I decided to try a new recipe!  Having hungry teenagers is a great time to try a new recipe!

I had to laugh when all the girls (who were not asleep), gathered around to watch me prepare it.  I felt like I was on my own cooking show!  

The result was fantastic!  This recipe was so super easy and delicious.  

I found the recipe on Pinterest and it can be found by clicking here:
