Chicken and Broccoli Cheesy Casserole

 3 c. cooked chicken, chopped
16 oz  bag of frozen broccoli (or asparagus, if you prefer)
1 c. diced onion
2 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
1 t. garlic powder
1 chicken bouillon cube*
1/2 c. water 
1 T. olive oil
1/4 t. pepper (or to taste)
1/4 c. sour cream
1 c. ricotta

Spray a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish. Add broccoli, onion, chicken bouillon, water, olive oil and pepper to a medium frying pan. Cook covered for about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally. In a medium bowl mix the chicken, garlic powder, sour cream and ricotta cheese together. Mix until blended. After 10 minutes of cooking the veggies, pour the broccoli mix into the bowl with the chicken. Stir until blended.  Add 1/4 c. of the shredded mozzarella cheese to the mix. Stir. Place in sprayed dish and spread evenly. Add the remaining mozzarella cheese on top and bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes. Once the top layer of cheese is browned a bit it should be done. Serve warm and enjoy!

*I just used the water that I had cooked the chicken in, instead of adding a bouillon cube (too much salt ).
