Some recipes are so old they have become friends. This creamy gluten-free chicken broccoli casserole recipe was given to me by a friend during my first year of marriage.  So, I have been making it for over 26 years.  The flavor combinations are wonderful and there are never any leftovers!

This recipe is perfect to take to a potluck dinner or to a friend that has just had a baby, the creamy deliciousness agrees with everyone. You can pair it with a salad and chocolate brownies for a complete meal.

This recipe is gluten-free, nut-free, Paleo, and sugar-free!

What is really left to say?

ENJOY!

  1. Delish! Love me some chicken broccoli casserole. These old 80’s and 90’s recipes are keepers. For once in a while.

    1. Agreed Betsy! I think I love this one because all the fat in it! 🙂

  2. That looks so good. I’d have to eat the whole thing myself because of my picky family. Well, Faith would eat it. Maybe I could halve it Thanks for sharing!

    1. Thanks for your comment Barbara! Here is an idea…Make a full batch and then divide it and put it in the freezer for lunch. It freezes well. Enjoy!
