How to make Keto Broccoli Cheese Casserole

Only a few convenient ingredients are needed for this easy recipe.

Ingredients

• Broccoli - Super obvious, I know! Broccoli is keto-friendly and full of nutrients.
• Rotisserie Chicken - I love using rotisserie chicken, mainly for the convenience. You can also opt for canned chicken or shredded chicken breasts.
• Cream Cheese - I use cream cheese in most of my casserole recipes. It just adds to the creaminess and holds everything together.
• Cheddar - I prefer sharp cheddar because of the robust flavor. 
• Mayo - Mayonaisse is keto friendly, and adds a bit more creaminess to the casserole.
• Dijon Mustard (Optional) - Ok, so this is completely optional. However, I like to think of the dijon mustard as my extra special secret ingredient for this recipe. It adds a very small tangy flavor that compliments that chicken so well!

Instructions

1. First, lightly steam the broccoli in the microwave. To do this, add the broccoli along with about 1/4 cup of water to a medium bowl. Microwave for about 2 - 3 minutes. Drain any excess water.
2. Remove the meat from the rotisserie chicken, and shred it with 2 forks.
3. Add all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl, with the exception of 1/2 cup of the cheddar.

4. Spread the mixture in a casserole dish, and top with the remaining cheese.

5. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes, or until the cheese begins to get bubbly.
