Dinner @ Home, Nights 3, 4, & 5

So I'm behind on the Dinners Posts :)
Rob is out of town this next week but after he gets back I'm going to be documented SOME, not all of our new recipes we are trying out.

Night #3
Creamy Chicken & Cheese Pasta Bake. 
Rotini Pasta+ Broccoli+ Chicken+3 Different Cheeses+Oven=YUMMY

1 and 1/2 cups rotini pasta
1 small bunch brocoli, cut into florets
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pices
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 oz cream cheese, cubed
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

Cook pasta as directed on package, adding broccoli for the last 3 minutes. Drain. Meanwhile, heat large skillet on medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 3 minutes or until no longer pink, stirring frequently. Stir in broth; simmer 3 minutes. Add cream cheese; cook and stir on low heat until melted. Stir in 1/2 cup mozzarella. Add pasta and broccoli to chicken mixture and mix lightly. Spoon into 8 inch square baking dish. Cover with remaining mozzarella and parmesan. Cover with foil and freeze. Thaw in refrigerator overnight. Bake covered at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. Bake uncovered an additional 10 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
