Gluten-Free Chicken Divan

This gluten-free chicken divan recipe delivers amazing flavor and is every bit as creamy and cheesy as the flour-based versions.  When eating gluten-free, it is rare to be able to enjoy a creamy casserole since most are based on cream of “fill in the blank” soup (and they’re ALL flour based!)  The key with this recipe is to make your own cream of chicken soup, which is way easier than you would think.  As long as you have some gluten-free flour in your pantry, you probably already have everything you need to make this.
