Chicken and Broccoli


                                Tetrazzini



             This traditional favorite is usually loaded with fat, calories, and
             processed foods, but it’s been revised for this clean eating version.
             Even better, it mostly uses ingredients you’ve already got on hand.
             Pick up a rotisserie natural chicken at the grocery store to make
             prep time super fast.

             Cooking Tip: Be sure the broccoli is completely thawed before
             cooking to prevent it from watering out during baking.
