Happy New Year Everyone!
I must say this year is going to be so amazing and awesome! I can’t wait for it all. Our Christmas holiday was great to say the least. I am gonna post later this week on that. For now I want to share some of my awesome new adventures in the kitchen.
I love cooking anyways but I have been doing a lot more new recipes and all lately. I think it is because I am about to have this baby girl so I know for a while I won’t be cooking. It will be easy and quick meals. So here are 2 of the new recipes.
Creamy Chicken & Broccoli Casserole
- 3 Chicken breasts, cooked & shredded
- 2 cans of cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup of mayo
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup colby & monterrey jack cheese
- 1 bag of frozen broccoli, thawed & chopped (or can use fresh just steam before hand unless you want it crunchy)
- salt & pepper to taste.
Cook chicken & shred. Meanwhile chop broccoli unless you bought it already chopped. Mix all ingredients together. Transfer mixture to slightly grease 2 qt. casserole dish. Heat Oven to 375. Cook for 30 minutes or until Bubbly. And the most important part. SERVE WITH RICE! This is SOOOOO AMAZING!
Ps My love took this for lunch and made a sandwich and said it was soooo good that was too. ENJOY!
Next Recipe is: Bacon Wrapped Asparagus & Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken Breasts.
- Okay measurements for this are hard since I played it by ear. It is easy and all by preference. I do a chicken breast for each.
- 2 slices of bacon for each breast.
- 4 aparagus spears for each breast.
- Mozzarella Cheese, I would say 1/2- 1 cup. Whatever your preference is on how much you want inside chicken.
- Italian Bread crumbs.
- Salt & Pepper
Preheat oven to 375. Grease baking pan. Pound each breast with flat side of meat mallet til about 1/4 in thick. Sprinkle with salt & pepper on each side.
Place 4 spears of asparagus down center of chicken breasts and spread mozzarella cheese over asparagus. Repeat with all chicken breasts.
Roll the chicken around the asparagus & cheese in a tight tidy roll, wrap 2 slices of bacon around each breast. Then place into dish seam side down.
Sprinkle each breast with about 2 tablespoons of bread crumbs.
Bake in oven til juices run clear. about 30-45 minutes.
My family loved both of these and my son especially loved them! If you try any of these please let me know your thoughts! 🙂
As always from my family to yours,
✌Peace, 💟Love, & :)Happiness

I love asparagus, add it to a dish, it makes the dish even better. We’re vegetarian, but I could easily modify the Creamy Chicken & Broccoli Casserole to fit our lifestyle. 🙂

I’m doing a healthy eating challenge right now and if I use some low-fat cheese and turkey bacon I could try those chicken breasts. They look amazing!

We make a very similar version of your chicken and broccoli casserole. We love it! (All except for the picky eater, that is!)
