Creamy Broccoli Chicken

I was looking for something to use up some leftover broccoli, and came across this recipe. It was warm, easy, and a good dinner for David and I. I think that this will probably be a favorite when we have small children as it's simple, yummy, and it's got broccoli in it.

Ingredients:
1 large chicken breast
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cheddar soup
1 can chicken broth
¼ teaspoon garlic salt 
¼ teaspoon onion salt
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 Cup sour cream
6 Cups broccoli florets, lightly steamed, just fork tender
1 Cup shredded cheddar cheese
Directions:
Place soups, chicken broth, and seasoning into a crockpot over low heat. Whisk until smooth. Place chicken in, making sure to cover with the sauce. Cover lid and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3 hours.
When chicken is cooked, use 2 forks to shred into bite size pieces. Stir in sour cream and steamed broccoli.  Serve over rice and sprinkle with cheese.

(4-6 servings)

*The original recipe called for ¼ teaspoon Cajun seasoning (Emeril’s brand) but I didn't have any on hand, so I left it out. I would like to try it next time around to see if it would add just a little kick to the sauce.
