Originally posted on March 21, 2009. I’ve changed the recipe a bit since then.

I do not know where this recipe came from.

I got it from a friend, who got it from a friend, who’d also gotten it from a friend. It’s like a chain letter, only you’ll love it.

Broccoli, Cheese, and Rice Casserole is supposed to be a side dish. It’s delicious and flavorful.

We never eat it as a side dish any more. When we make this, we open a can of shredded chicken and call it a meal.

This is equally good with frozen and fresh broccoli, in case you’re wondering. Use whatever you have on hand.
