Instructions: Let’s Get Cooking!
Time to put on your apron and get that culinary magic flowing. Follow these simple steps, and soon enough, you’ll have a delectable broccoli casserole that’ll make everyone wonder if you’re a professional chef!
- First things first, preheat your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C). It’s about to get real warm and fuzzy in here.
- In a big ol’ bowl, mix together the cream of mushroom soup and milk until it’s nice and smooth. Just imagine it’s a luxurious potion of creamy goodness.
- Add in the chopped broccoli, shredded cheese, cooked rice, salt, and pepper. Stir like your masterpiece depends on it!
- Spread all that delicious mixture into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Make sure it’s an even layer; we need symmetry in our cheesy world!
- Pop it in the oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until it’s bubbling and golden on top. This is when you’ll have to distract yourself to avoid constant peeking (but honestly, who can resist?).
- Once it’s done, pull it out and sprinkle those French fried onions on top. Because frankly, what’s a casserole without some crunch, right?
- Return to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes until the onions are a crispy golden brown. Now the anticipation is real!
And voilà! There you have it—your very own Broccoli & Cheese Casserole. It’s ooey-gooey, cheesy, and packed with goodness. Serve it up and watch it disappear faster than you can say ‘more cheese, please!’ Enjoy!
