Recipe View Bake (35-45 minutes): Bake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is melted and lightly browned.

For an extra layer of flavor, sauté the diced onion and sliced mushrooms in a little butter or olive oil before adding them to the sauce.
Feel free to substitute different types of cheese, such as Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or a blend of cheeses, to customize the flavor.
Add a dash of garlic powder or onion powder to the sauce for enhanced flavor.
If you don't have frozen broccoli, you can use fresh broccoli florets. Steam or blanch them until crisp-tender before adding them to the sauce.
For a creamier casserole, add a splash of milk or cream to the soup mixture.
If the top of the casserole is browning too quickly, tent it with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven until heated through.

    My kids are picky eaters, but they loved this casserole! They especially liked the cheesy topping.

  • Marley Dooley

    I added some chopped cooked ham to the casserole, and it was delicious! A great way to use up leftover ham.

  • Koby Torpkuhlman

    I used a rotisserie chicken instead of poaching chicken breasts, and it worked perfectly. Saved me a lot of time!

  • Krista Grimes

    This recipe is a lifesaver on busy weeknights! My family loves it, and it's so easy to throw together.

  • Olin Bergstrom

    I found the casserole a little too rich, so I used light mayonnaise and reduced-fat cream of mushroom soup. It was still delicious, but a bit healthier.
