  • 4 tbsp Butter (melted)
  • 12 oz Bag Frozen Broccoli Florets

  • Mix until everything is well blended.
  • Next, add the frozen broccoli and stir.
  • Incorporate the shredded chicken and then the 1 cup of cheese, mixing thoroughly after each addition (you can add all three ingredients at once, but mixing individually can be easier).

  • Top the casserole with a sprinkle of cheese (use your judgment for the amount), and do not mix.
  • Crush Cheez Its and evenly distribute them over the cheese layer, again measuring as you like.

Notes

  • For extra veggies, consider adding chopped bell peppers or spinach along with the broccoli.
