Here is a revised recipe for Chicken Divan (taken from a Campbell's Soup Can).

1 lb frozen broccoli spears (cut in half)
1 1/2 cups of cubed cooked chicken
1 can of Campbell's creamy chicken mushroom soup
1/2 cup of sour cream
1 cup of chicken broth
1 - 1 1/2 cups of buttered bread crumbs

Chicken:  I usually boil breasts and thighs (with the skin on and
slightly)             salted) and reserve the liquid for the broth. 
Remove the skin
          before cubing.

Broccoli Spears:  Microwave on high for about 5 minutes before placing in the
                  baking dish

Bread Crumbs:    I usually just microwave two good sized chunks of butter and
                 stir in the breadcrumbs until I get the desired consistency.

In a 9 x 13 glass baking dish place the broccoli spears so they
completely cover the bottom.  Place cubed chicken on top.In a large
saucepan, combine soup, sour cream, and chicken broth.  Stir well.  
Pour over chicken.  Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

This is one of the easiest dishes I have ever made.  The part that takes
the most time is the chicken, but this can be boiling while you get the
broccoli and breadcrumb mixture ready.

Broccoli Casserole

This is also a revised recipe that I got from my roommate.  It doesn't
have any meat and may be too loaded in cholesterol for your children,
but it is very good.  I have eaten as a main dish for lunch.

2 pkgs of frozen chopped broccoli
1 can Campbell's cream of mushroom soup
1 cup mayonnaise (use Hellmann's - Miracle Whip does not work as well)
2 eggs 
1 cup of grated cheese
1 cup of diced onions
1 cup of buttered bread crumbs

Again, microwave the broccoli on high for 5 minutes before mixing with
the other ingredients.  Combine all of the ingredients except the
breadcrumbs.
Pour into a rectangular or round glass baking dish.  Cover with breadcrumbs.
Bake on 350 for 30 minutes (or until you can stick a knife through and
the mixture is moist but not runny).

Another easy one.  I know the mayonnaise and eggs seem redundant, but it
does give the casserole the consistency that I like.  You can try it
without the eggs and see which consitency you like better.  You can also
alter the amount of mayo to cut down on the high cholesterol content.
