This Broccoli Chicken Divan is a classic dish that has been around for decades. It's a great way to get your family to eat their vegetables, as the broccoli is smothered in a creamy cheese sauce and topped with tender chicken.
The dish is also incredibly easy to make and can be thrown together in no time. I remember my mom making this dish for us growing up, and it was always a hit. The combination of flavors and textures was always a hit with my family, and I'm sure it will be with yours too.
