This chicken broccoli quinoa casserole is one of my fave dishes to make when I meal prep! It’s super easy & delicious — and of course, full of nutritional ingredients to help fuel your body and keep you staying energized, as well as satiated.

Ingredients:

2 pounds of chicken {raw}

1.5 cups of greek yogurt {I use fage 0%}

2 cups of chicken broth

1/2 cup of reduced fat shredded mozzarella cheese

2 cups of cooked quinoa

1 jar of roasted red peppers {I used a 12 oz jar}

3 cups of broccoli, chopped

1/2 cup of white onion, diced

1/2 cup of panko bread crumbs

2 tbsp italian seasoning

1 tbsp oregano

Salt, pepper, garlic powder to taste

Directions:

1. Boil chicken breasts until done.  Once completed, remove cooked chicken breasts from pot and shred them using 2 forks.
2. Steam broccoli and onions, using rice cooker or over the stove.
3. In a blender, pulse greek yogurt and roasted red peppers until smooth.
4. Mix chicken, broccoli, onions, greek yogurt/roasted red peppers mixture, seasonings, quinoa, and 1/2 of the chicken broth in a bowl.
5. Spray a large baking dish with coconut oil spray or another type of non-stick spray.
6. Place mixture in the large baking dish.
7. Top with panko bread crumbs, mozzarella cheese, and the other 1/2 of the chicken broth {this keeps the dish moist}.
8. Stick in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees.

This recipe was adapted from Fit Men Cook. I’ve found that boiling the chicken provides better texture — especially when re-heating the meal.  I also love adding roasted red peppers to give the dish some spice.  Keep in mind, that I used different measurements for some of the ingredients, because I’ve found that it works better for my personal taste.
