We love a great casserole and this broccoli rice version is a winner! It’s a great side dish to any meal or holiday!
This Pea and Bacon Pasta Salad is a great side dish too. It’s a great addition to any meal and super easy to make.
❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE
We love how easy this casserole is and it has a great flavor. It’s a great side dish for any holiday gathering, from Easter to Christmas. Anytime we have served it, there is none left! It also comes together really well and is versatile. You can switch up the cheese and add any spices you like and other vegetables too.
SWAPS
This casserole is very versatile. You can swap out the white rice for brown rice. You could add other vegetables, like carrots and green beans. You can also swap out the cheese and change up the soup.
IS THE RICE COOKED?
Yes, you will make the rice and then add it to this casserole. One cup of uncooked rice will make two cups of cooked rice. This casserole takes about 3.5 cups of cooked rice, so you will need two cups of UNCOOKED rice, and once it is cooked, that will make around four cups.
