BROCCOLI RICE AND CHEESE CASSEROLE

BROCCOLI RECIPE INGREDIENTS

• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 10oz pkgs of frozen broccoli, cooked and drained
• 1 stick of butter
• 2 can cream of chicken soup
• 6 cups of wild rice
• 1 clove of garlic
• 3 cups of shredded cheese, your favorite

BROCCOLI RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a skillet melt the stick of butter. Sauté onion and garlic, until onions are tender. Set aside to cool.
Steam the frozen broccoli until thawed, then drain well. Let cool.
Cook wild rice according to directions. (Use any type of rice desired; wild rice is exceptionally good in this recipe).
It is important to allow the warm ingredients to cool before mixing everything together so the cheese doesn't melt too soon.
When sufficiently cool, reserve 1/2 cup of the cheese and mix remaining ingredients together. Put in a oven-proof baking dish or casserole dish (or 2 if needed).
Spread reserved 1/2 cup of cheese on top. Cover with foil.
Bake for 20 minutes, remove foil; bake an additional 5 to 15 minutes, or until cheese on top is hot and bubbly.
Make approx 12 servings, recipe can be cut in half.
