A fast and nutritious bake that combines ground chicken, broccoli, and cottage cheese for a comforting family meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Ground Chicken
  • 1 ½ cups Cottage Cheese (blended)
  • 2 cups Broccoli Florets (steamed and dried)
  • 1 cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Garlic Salt

Instructions

  1. Sauté the Ground Chicken In a large skillet, sauté the ground chicken over medium heat until fully cooked, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain any excess liquid.
  2. Steam the Broccoli While the chicken cooks, steam your broccoli florets until bright green and tender. Once done, pat them bone-dry with a towel to prevent sogginess.
  3. Combine Ingredients In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken, dried broccoli, blended cottage cheese, onion powder, and garlic salt. Toss until everything is evenly coated.
  4. Assemble the Bake Spread the mixture evenly in a baking dish. Top with the shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
  5. Bake to Perfection Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  6. Rest and Serve Allow the casserole to sit for about 5 minutes before serving. This helps the cheese sauce thicken up nicely!

Notes

Serve alongside a green salad or roasted vegetables. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
