Chicken and Brocolli Chesserole

One of the things I like to do during my free time is to try new recipe.  I like to try not a difficult one which requires never heard of recipe or too complicate to prepare meals, but more to simple, nice and fulfilling dishes which can be prepared in the shortest possible time.

And I found this one from the internet which took me less than 15 minutes to prepare, well.. the only thing that took a bit of time to do was cooking the chicken meat, the rest was chicken!

Here are the recipe:

Ingredients

• 4 ounces dried medium noodles
• 2-1/2 cups chopped cooked chicken or turkey
• 1 10-ounce package frozen chopped broccoli, thawed
• 1/2 cup sliced green onions
• 1 10-3/4-ounce can condensed cream of mushroom soup
• 1/2 cup skim milk
• 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese (2 ounces)
• 1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• Paprika

Directions
1. Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain well.
2. In a 2-quart casserole stir together noodles, chicken or turkey, broccoli, and green onions.
3. In a medium mixing bowl stir together soup, milk, cheese, basil, and pepper. Stir into noodle mixture.
4. Bake, covered, in a 350 degree F oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle with paprika. Makes 6 servings.
5. Make-Ahead Tip: Prepare casserole; cover and chill up to 24 hours. Bake as above.


Its quite nice, although it was a bit too cheesy for me with the mushroom soup, milk and cheese in our helping.  But my daughter loved it!
