- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (optional for topping)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, blanch the broccoli florets for about 3 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, shredded cheddar cheese, milk, mayonnaise, chopped onion, cream of mushroom soup, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
- Add the blanched broccoli to the mixture and gently fold it in so that the florets are evenly coated with the creamy sauce.
- Transfer the casserole mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. If you like a little crunch on top, sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until bubbling and golden brown on top.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. This casserole is perfect on its own or as a delightful side dish!
