I HAVE lots of broccoli that was for vegetable trays...
I HAVE lots of shredded cheese left from the garnish for the chicken chili.
I HAVE cream of mushroom soup (because we "overbought" for the wild rice soup....
I can use all of this to make this traditional baked casserole. It is pretty simple and hearty enough for a main dish!
