"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

2 cans cream of mushroom soup,
1 can cream of chicken soup,
1-2 cups of mayonnaise, cooking sherry,
lemon juice 3-4 tablespoons
5. In a large baking casserole, layer: broccoli, chicken, mushrooms and sauce mixture.

I have put this in the freezer before cooking, then thawed out and baked. It's a little juicy. It is better if its cooked right away

Don't overcook the broccoli
