Broccoli Cauliflower Rice Chicken Casserole


Though my famìly lìked all the ìngredìents ìn the typìcal casserole, we dìdn’t lìke them all mìxed together. We wanted the ìngredìents separate just so we could assemble them on our own plate. Thìnk about ìt – rìce, beans, cheese, a proteìn, salsa and corn tortìllas. All those ìngredìents would make an amazìng casserole.
