I made this paleo, keto and low carb chicken broccoli casserole a few weeks ago for my dad and his friend who were coming over to do some odd jobs at my house in Nashville. They loved it and kept asking for seconds. It is very filling and will satisfy a heart appetite for many hours. I used to love casseroles as a kid such as potatoes au gratin, mac and cheese (try my sub recipe here) and tuna noodle casserole but this one is just as good without the gluten and dairy. Hope you like this keto and low carb chicken broccoli casserole and will share it with your family.
This keto and low carb chicken broccoli casserole is perfect for the 21 day sugar detox too because it has no sugar or starchy ingredients. Get started on the detox here. Leave a comment and let me know how it turns out.
