Broccoli-Cauliflower Chicken Casserole image

A chicken, broccoli and rice casserole is one of our favorite comfort foods. I make my easy variation in the slow cooker. You can easily substitute whatever cheese you prefer. I sometimes use dairy-free cheese to create a more paleo-friendly dinner. The dish is also delicious sprinkled with a simple bread crumb topping. -Courtney Stultz, Weir, Kansas

This dish was a hit with my family! The broccoli and cauliflower were cooked perfectly, and the chicken was moist and flavorful. The sauce was creamy and cheesy, and it all came together perfectly.
