Cheesy Broccoli Bacon Chicken Casserole image

I created this dish to use the broccoli I had bought for the first time in my life (used to hate the stuff!) and to fit my parents' low carb diet. The fastest way to pre-cook the broccoli, chicken and bacon is by using a combination of the microwave and stovetop. I cooked the bacon and chicken in the microwave--separately--and I steamed the broccoli--but you could also nuke the broccoli and saute the other two).

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some leftover rotisserie chicken that I used and it turned out great. The casserole was also very filling and satisfying.

This casserole was a hit with my family! It was easy to make and the flavors were amazing. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the broccoli was still slightly crunchy. The cheese sauce was creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again
