    Made this just as written except only 1/2 because theres just 2 of us. It was delicious with a fresh green salad. The leftovers I decided to make into soup next day by adding some frozen riced cauliflower , 2.5 tsp curry powder and 2c of chicken stock and pureeing (took out a little for texture and added back in at end) delicious for lunch.

    My family and I love this recipe! It’s delicious and a great way to use fresh basil from the garden (I’m always looking for places to use that!) I ESPECIALLY appreciate the measurements of ingredients added to the steps in the recipe, so I don’t have to go back and forth or pre measure everything beforehand.

    My husband told me multiple times how good this casserole was, and he offered that I can make it again anytime. It’s hard to please the teenager with anything that includes vegetables and “too much” cheese, but the grown-ups loved it.

    I just loved the keto creamy chicken broccoli casserole recipe! I would love to finish the recipe with a little bit of clarified butter or ghee. I personally prefer the taste of ghee instead of any other cooking fats.

    We like a little bit of a crunchy topping on our casseroles. I took a couple of cups of pork rinds in each them down into breadcrumb texture, added some Cajun seasoning, and then mixed that with the cheese to top the caserole.
    PERFECTION! We loved the creamy casserole with the crunchy topping.
