Chicken Broccoli Rice Casserole by Nette

Ingredients

•10 cups cooked rice (white or brown) •4 cups cooked chicken, chopped (I bake mine in the oven like this.) •4 cups chopped broccoli, lightly steamed (can use frozen or fresh) •2 cans cream of mushroom soup (or 2 batches cream of mushroom soup) •2 cans cream of chicken soup (or 2 batches cream of chicken soup) •4 cups shredded cheddar cheese •salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.

To freeze: Divide into four ziptop freezer bags and seal tightly. Freeze flat.

To serve: Thaw overnight (or for 8 hours) in the refrigerator. Dump into a greased casserole dish (each bag will fill an 8Χ8-inch pan; two bags will fill a 9Χ13-inch pan). Sprinkle with additional shredded cheese, if desired.

Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.

This recipe makes around 15-18 servings. Each freezer bag serves 4-5 people
