Broccoli and Rice casserole

First of all, thank you to SnoWhite for giving me yet another great recipe!

When I was planning out our menu for the week I needed something to go with my rice casserole. I went to her blog and found this recipe for Ranch Chicken Parmesan. It was amazing!

I didn't have boneless, skinless chicken breast so I used skinless, bone in chicken quarters. I baked them for about 45 minutes to account for the bone being in. Loved them :)

Tonight's other new recipe was part of the CLP. It was a definite hit.

I took some pictures, again, no judging my photography skills!

Seriously, everything was so good. And the casserole was the perfect side for the chicken. We served some quartered tomato wedges for a pop of color. Super tasty. Jon gave the meal a 9 out of 10.

Here's to you and your culinary adventures friend. Cheers!
