Step 1
Boil the chicken in a pot of water until cooked through (25-30 minutes)

Step 4
To make the cheese sauce, heat the chicken broth and "milk" on medium high; whisk in the corn starch until thick; lower the heat and add the Daiya shreds and salt; once the shreds are melted, remove from the heat

Once the chicken is done, drain the hot water out of the pot and run cold water in the pot to cool the chicken; when cool enough; shred the chicken and put into the large saucepan with the vegetables.
Step 9
Add the sauce to the large pan with the chicken and veggies and mix thoroughly.
Step 10
