This Broccoli Chicken Divan is a classic dish that’s been around for decades.

It’s a great way to get your family eating vegetables, as the broccoli is coated in a creamy cheese sauce and topped with tender chicken.

This dish is also incredibly easy to prepare and can be made in no time. I remember my mother making this dish for us when we were little, and it was always a hit.

The combination of flavors and textures has always been a hit with my family, and I’m sure it will be with yours too.
