Chicken, Broccoli, and Macaroni

It's kind of like macaroni and cheese, only with more stuff in it. I use cooked chicken and turkey interchangeably - whatever I have. Last week I cooked a turkey, so I used turkey.

Chicken Macaroni and Cheese w/ Broccoli

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup elbow macaroni
  • 6 small green onions (or 1 small yellow onion), chopped
  • 4 T. butter
  • 1/2 cup grated cheese (or more)
  • 2 cups frozen broccoli
  • 2 cups cubed, cooked chicken (or turkey)
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. curry powder
  • 1/2 cup grated cheese
Directions:
  1. Cook macaroni according to directions
  2. Saute chopped onions in butter and mix with cooked macaroni. Spoon into greased 9"x13" baking dish. Sprinkle with grated cheese. Break up uncooked broccoli and place over cheese. Cover with cubed chicken or turkey.
  3. Combine soup, milk, salt and curry powder. Pour over other ingredients in baking dish. Cover with grated cheese.
  4. Cover and bake at 375 for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 5-10 minutes longer.

The original recipe came from my favorite cookbook, The Best of Mennonite Fellowship Meals, but of course I've changed it up to suit my tastes.
