Baked Chicken, Broccoli and Rice Casserole

I don’t know about you, but fall brings out the comfort food in me! This simple Baked Chicken, Broccoli and Rice Casserole recipe is a classic comfort food dish for my family. As a kid, one of my favorite and ONLY recipes that included a vegetable was broccoli, cheese and rice casserole. My mom used to dice the broccoli so fine that I had no idea that what I was eating was actually good for me!

After going to the pumpkin patch, I made this Chicken, Broccoli and Rice Casserole recipe for my family and they ate it all up! To balance out the candy intake, I plan on serving this easy recipe again on Halloween night. At least I can try to sneak in a little vegetables before the candy. We’ll see if I can drag my kids away from their Halloween candy to eat it. If not, just more for me! Yum!

I love her toothless smile! Since I chopped up the broccoli so fine, she had no idea what she was eating.
