Chicken Broccoli Casserole

This may not be greatest looking, but lets be serious what casserole really makes you drool just by looking at it!?!


Ingredients:

Broccoli (1-2 bushels or 1 large frozen bag)
2 Cups Cooked Chicken, diced or shredded
1 Cup Mayonnaise (we prefer Miracle Whip in our home)
1 Can Cream of Chicken Soup
1 Egg
1/2 tsp Salt
1/8 tsp Pepper
Dash of Paprika
Dash of Cayenne Pepper (**Only if you like spicing it up!**)
1/4 Cup Bread Crumbs
4-6 oz. Shredded Cheese (I like a mild cheddar personally)

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°F.

In a small bowl mix together Mayonnaise, Cream of Chicken Soup, Egg, Salt, and Pepper. In a casserole dish lay out a layer of broccoli, then a layer of chicken. Cover the chicken layer with the mayonnaise mixture. At this point I like to add a light sprinkle of paprika and if I feel like spicing it up a little I will sprinkle just a little bit of cayenne on. Sprinkle bread crumbs on top (you can use more or less than the 1/4 cup, just make sure there is a nice even coat that is fairly thin). Finally I sprinkle it all with cheese. We like a lot of cheese... but adjust to your preference!

Bake for 45 minutes so the broccoli will be fully cooked and the cheese will be melted.
