Gorgeous George’s Casserole (From Trader Joe’s)
1 Bag frozen grilled chicken strips
1 Bag frozen broccoli
1 Box frozen Artichoke Spinach Dip
1/2 Cup Half and Half
(Optional) 1/2 Bag Fried Onion Rings
Defrost the broccoli, chicken, and dip.
Cut the broccoli and chicken into bite sized pieces and place in bowl.
Mix the dip and cream.
Stir into chicken mixture, and then pour into a baking dish.
Top with onion rings.
Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Broil for 5 to increase top browning.
(We left out the onion rings to make this low-carb appropriate!)
1/4 cup leeks or onions, chopped, about 3/4 ounce
1-2 tablespoons butter
16 ounces frozen broccoli
2 cups chicken broth, homemade preferred
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup heavy cream
Pinch nutmeg, optional
Sauté the leek or onions in the butter in a medium saucepan until tender. Add the frozen broccoli, broth and a bit of salt and pepper. Bring to a boil; cover and simmer until the broccoli is very tender, about 10 minutes. Puree in a blender or with a stick blender until smooth and thick. Stir in the cream and blend well. Adjust seasoning and add nutmeg, if desired. Reheat if necessary.
