White sauce cheesy chicken casserole

About 3 years ago, my sister Verity made this for dinner. She was visiting us. She was working in Suva and we were living in Taveuni (she lives in America now but we still live on taveuni). She came to visit. At the same time, my eldest sister Haley came to visit us. (She was at college in Florida). We went swimming at a waterfall that day and no one wanted to cook when we came back. Verity saw what we had and decided to make a casserole. The casserole she made was very simple and quick. She didn’t use measurements so that is off the top of my head. I also haven’t made this in 2 years so I barely remember it but... it’s still amazing!
Don’t be deceived by how many steps and/or ingredients in this dish. It is super EASY!! My sister whipped this up in 20 minutes! Although, the chicken was already boiled and the veggies were already thaw. BUT STILL... soooo easy!
I would suggest that you shred your cheese and bake your chicken the day before you make this. (That’s what I did to save time) Other than the chicken and cheese, the cooking process isn’t long.

Easy White Sauce for Casseroles and Gratinées Easy White Sauce for Casseroles and Gratinées
You can make this white sauce in no time. I add bacon and ketchup into leftover rice, and pour over white sauce to make an easy doria, or make a small amount of the sauce to make gratin with toasted bread, or use it in a bento box. Sometimes I add more milk to make a thinner sauce, and pour it over omurice as well.The strength of gluten in the bread flour will easily produce a smooth sauce without fail, but you can produce good results with cake flour as well.
