Instructions
Start by pre-heating your oven to 425 F and set your rack to the middle position.
Prepare your ingredients according to the instructions above (you can either buy pre-packed broccoli florets or buy a broccoli crown and cut into florets), shred your cooked chicken breast (can use rotisserie for ease), and add cottage cheese to a food processor on high for about 45-50 seconds or until smooth but not overly whipped.
To a 9x13 casserole dish, add in your chickpea pasta followed by your shredded chicken breast, broccoli florets, and Dan-O's cheesoning. Next, add in your milk. Then, the grated parmesan in an even layer on top. After that, you will add your blended cottage cheese. Use a spoon or rubber spatula to evenly distribute the cottage cheese on top and then finally, add in your chicken bone broth.
Use a spoon to mix everything together until the cottage cheese is evenly distributed. Using that same spoon, push down everything to make sure that your pasta is submerged in the liquid to allow for proper cooking.
Cover your dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes. After 45 minutes, carefully remove the baking dish and the foil. Add your mozzarella cheese in an even layer on top and then cook uncovered for 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and slightly golden brown.
