2 Cans Cream of Chicken Soup
1 Cup Sour Cream

Options:
**2 pkgs. 10 oz. frozen Broccoli – cooked according to directions instead of fresh Broccoli.
**My mom has removed the Mayo from this recipe and swears it tastes better. I made mine that night with the Mayo.
**Because my family likes things a little more “saucy”, I 1½ the sauce.
**For smaller casseroles you could easily ½ this recipe and place in a smaller pan.

Enjoy!
