I love to tweak this dish! Today i used wild rice, broccoli, frozen peas, carrots and rotisserie chicken then threw it in the oven with a dusting of paprika on top. served with a spring mix or green salad and it is perfect! Yum!

Great and easy recipe I doubled everything but the cheese and it was still great and less fat. -
I used chopped frozen broccoli and instant rice and it came out magnificent!!! -
This was great! It was really quick and easy to whip up for a side dish, and the ingredients are really forgivable based on what you have available. -
So comforting and delicious! I used 1 -16oz. bag trader joes frozen brocolli, 1 cup shredded cheddar, 2 cups cooked brown jasmine rice, sauted 1/2 cup onion and 2 cloves garlic and used cream of chicken soup and the 3/4 cup milk as noted. I didn't have any celery but will try next time. Thank you MommyMakes for a top notch recipe. I will also try other combinations of flavors because this is relatively healthy, easy and inexpensive!
