Tricolor Rotini, Chicken & Broccoli Casserole

Creamette

½ package (6 oz.) tricolor rotini, uncooked

1 package (10 oz.) frozen chopped broccoli, thawed

1 ½ to 2 cups cooked chicken, cubed

1 ½ cups (6 oz.) shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 can (10 ¾ oz.) condensed cream of chicken or cream of mushroom soup

1 cup milk

1 can (4 oz.) mushroom stems and pieces, drained

Cook pasta according to package directions. Preheat oven to 350F. In large bowl, combine all ingredients except ¾ cup cheese; mix well. 

So there weren't any canned or fresh mushrooms to be had in Target, but I found a frozen dinner that had some shiitakes in it so I decided to just pick them out of that. Turned out there were only eight measly mushroom scraps in the whole frozen dinner.


Spoon into a greased 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Top with remaining ¾ cup cheese. Bake uncovered, 25 to 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly.

Broccoli and cheese FTW.


Let stand 10 minutes.

Served with a nice salad!

My Rating: 4/5 "Everything is present in a good ratio here. There's enough broccoli to make it both tasty and pretty and just enough cheese to make it satisfying without drowning everything. There isn't much chicken, but that's ok. Everything else is good without all kinds of meat."
