Ingredients

Rice and Broccoli

  • 3 cups cooked rice (about 1 cup uncooked)
  • 1 package frozen broccoli florets (16 oz.)
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup (10 3/4 oz.)
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 0.5 tsp. black pepper
  • 0.25 tsp. garlic powder
  • 0.25 tsp. paprika
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided

Instructions 

  • Thaw broccoli and microwave for 5 minutes; drain well. Cut large florets into smaller pieces.
  • Mix cooked rice, onion, mushroom soup, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and 1 cup cheese. Fold in broccoli.
  • Spoon mixture into a greased 9x13-inch dish. Top with remaining cheese.
  • Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 35-40 minutes until bubbly and golden.
  • For make-ahead, assemble, refrigerate, and bake longer (60-75 min). Cover with foil if cheese browns too much.
