STRESSED MOM'S CHICKEN WITH YELLOW RICE, BROCCOLI & CHEESE



Stressed Mom's Chicken With Yellow Rice, Broccoli & Cheese image

I got this recipe from an equally stressed friend when my children were small. It saved us many nights when I was just too tired to cook a full meal. It's comfort food at its best and my children still request it when they come home to visit. Serve with hot rolls and you've got meat, veggies, and bread in one dish. Yummmm!
