Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole

Very yummy, but also a little salty (ham) and all that cheese can't be good for you. I have frozen after adding the broth but before the rice and cheese and it still comes out great.

1 onion, chopped
1 green pepper chopped
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 lb diced ham
2 cups of shredded chicken
4 tbl butter
1/4 cup flour
14oz can chicken broth (low sodium)
3 cups of cooked rice
2 cups shredded cheddar
2 cups shredded mozzarella

Preheat oven to 350. Cook onion and pepper in 2 tbl olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic, chicken and ham, cook 5 minutes. Add butter, after melted add flour, stir until combined. Stir in broth. Mix in rice, 1c cheddar, 1c mozzarella. Transfer to 9X13 pan, sprinkle top with remaining cheese. Bake 15 minutes uncovered, then 10 minutes covered with foil. Reheats well right in the 9x13 pan in the oven for leftovers.
