Week 35: Recipe #4--Broccoli Chicken Cups

I found this recipe on Pinterest--these were really good!  They come from a website called Taste of Home (see link below).  It's always good when I can sneak broccoli into food and the kids don't really notice.  I cut it up pretty fine, so they couldn't really tell what it was.  The only thing I wasn't sure about with this recipe was the crisp rice cereal.  I used it because that's what the recipe called for, but I think I'd leave it out next time.  I couldn't really tell it's purpose, and I didn't notice it while eating...I think they would taste just as good without it.  I also only used one tube of refrigerated biscuits, so I made 10 "cups".  That was plenty for our family of four (granted, two of them are littles).  I served these with green beans and fresh fruit.

You'll Need:
  • 2 c. (8 oz.) shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 1/3 c. crisp rice cereal (I think this could be left out, but haven't tried that yet)
  • 1 c. cubed cooked chicken
  • 2 tubes (10 oz. each) refrigerated biscuits (I used one to make 10 biscuits)
  • 1 can (10 3/4 oz.) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
  • 3 c. frozen chopped broccoli, cooked and drained
Preparation:
  1. Place biscuits in greased muffin cups, pressing dough onto the bottom and up the sides.  Add 1 tablespoon cheese and cereal to each cup.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, soup, and broccoli; spoon into each muffin cup.  Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until bubbly.  Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
