I know I'm not a great photographer.  It tastes much better than it looks.
Ok, I made this last night, and it is delicious!!!  Everyone will love this including the kids.  It is like eating cheese dip.  Remember when you are cooking that you can change any recipe to something you like, add something, subtract something, add a little more of an item or don't put as much of an item. 

Don't be afraid to try something, though.  We don't eat very many veggies, and I have to admit it is mostly my fault (and the kids).  I've never really cared for many veggies.  However, when I hide them, no one seems to notice a difference in the taste.

Again tastes much better than it looks.
Cheesy Chicken Casserole
1/2 a bag of tortilla chips (more if you decide to snack on some while cooking)
2 stalks of celery
1 small onion
broccoli (or other veggie(s))
Can of Rotel
1/2 loaf of Velvetta
1 little pod of Knorr Chicken stock & 1/4 c water (or can of cream of chicken)
2-3 Boneless/skinless chicken breast cooked and cubed

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Spray an 8 x 8 pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. Crumble 1/2 of tortilla chips and put in pan.
  4. Dice up celery, onion, and broccoli (or any other veggies) into small pieces (tiny pieces if you are my family and don't want to see any veggies, lol).
  5. Put veggies, Rotel, Velvetta, Chicken stock and water (or can of cream of chicken) in a sauce pan on medium heat.  
  6. Stir until cheese is melted and well blended.
  7. Add the cooked and cubed chicken to the mixture.
  8. Stir it all up.
  9. Pour over tortilla chips.
  10. Crumble the rest of the tortilla chips on top.
  11. Bake for about 25 minutes.
  12. Serve.

This is a great way to add veggies to your diet.  I really prefer hiding the veggies.  I guess I am still that picky child eater but I learned this when I was little.  My dad didn't care for any veggies when I was little.  He was a meat and potatoes man, don't put anything green on my plate man.
