A delicious, hearty and healthy chicken broccoli cheese casserole will appeal even to those who generally do not like broccoli. It turns out incredibly tender and juicy. A wonderful cheese crust and bright cherry tomato wedges make the casserole even more appetizing, and a mixture of Provencal herbs adds an incredible, bright aroma to the dish. And such a meal is very healthy for both children and adults.
