Chicken Divan


INGREDIENTS:

8 chicken breasts (halves, actually) or “equivalent” amount of chicken tenderloins, organic & boned
16-20 oz broccoli spears, organic,  frozen or fresh
1 can cream of celery or chicken soup (2 cans if you prefer more sauce)  (homemade cream of celery is lovely)
1 c mayonnaise (I like mayo made with 100% avocado oil)
1 teaspoons curry powder
3 Tablespoons lemon (or lime) juice, organic
Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

DIRECTIONS:
1. In casserole dish that you will serve with, bake chicken at 350 (325 if using glass dish) for 30-45 minutes depending on chicken size.

6. Place chicken on top of broccoli.
7. Cover with soup mixture.
