Deliciously Unhealthy Cheesy Broccoli and Rice

Who thought a guilty pleasure would be chicken and rice? Sounds crazy right? But this is a really really good chicken and rice. This recipe comes from my grandmas kitchen, where deliciously unhealthy food is born. The recipe is odd to say the least, but man its a hit. Great for potlucks, family dinner, get togethers or if you want to eat half the pan by yourself( or you eat the whole pan, this is a judgment free zone).

Here Is What You Need

1/2 Cup of Milk

2 Cups Cooked Rice

1 Can of Cream of Chicken

1/2 Cup of Margarine

1/3 Cup of Onion

2 1/2 Cups of Chopped Broccoli

1/2 Cup of Cheese Whiz (this is the best part)

8 by 8 casserole Pan

Step 1- The first thing you want to do is cook the 2 cups of rice. We start with the rice mainly because it takes soooo long to cook. If you are cooking on a stove top and have never done it before you can follow these instructions by themom100.com (https://themom100.com/recipe/how-to-cook-perfect-rice-on-the-stove-2/) or if your a rice cooker kind of person here are some instruction bywebstaurantstore.com (https://www.webstaurantstore.com/article/277/how-to-use-a-rice-cooker.html )

Step 2. Put the 1/3 cup of chopped onions in a large frying pan, along with the 1/2 cup of butter and saute. Than around this time I would Preheat your oven at 350 degrees.

Step 3. While your onions are sauteing, put 1 cup of water in a medium sauce pan. Than ad the 2 1/2 cups of broccoli and boil for 6-8 minutes.

DO NOT DRAIN!

Step 4. When the onions turn a golden brown add the 1 CAN CREAM OF CHICKEN, 1/2 MILK, 1/2 CUP OF CHEESE WHIZ. Mix well on low heat. The mixture should go from pic 1 to pic 2. It will kind of look like chip dip.

Step 5. When the rice is done, add to the onion mixture. Add slowly. I made the mistake of adding it in one go….Took me 10 minutes to stir it without creating a HUGE mess and I still ended up spilling. So add rice one scoop at a time.
