This was very good, I used orzo instead of long grain rice. I used up some velveeta cheese I had in the fridge and threw in some shredded cheddar & swiss.

I used a purple onion, a jar of cheese whiz, and one cup of white rice. The flavours all came together well exept for next time i would double the rice. The texture was a little mushy. Still yummy though would use it again.

I altered this recipe quite a bit. I didn't use any cheese sauce, replaced the cream of chicken with cream of mushroom, used two small shallots, and topped everything off with fresh shredded cheddar cheese. I would have to say it turned out quite good.

I fixed this for Christmas dinner because I had a broccolli rice casserole lover coming. It must of been pretty good because she kept asking me what where the different tastes she was getting. I heard her tell someone on the phone that I made some kick butt broccolli rice casserole. I really liked the bacon and we love onion but I did cut it back by half after reading the review's and I did add a little more rice but will not next time.I like more of a creamier taste than dry. Thanks so much for a really nice switch up taste on this casserole.

Coming from a large family, we divide up the cooking when we all get together. I was assigned a vegetable to bring to Thanksgiving dinner, and decided to try this one. Everyone loved it!!! Even my wife, who normally doesn't like broccoli, cheese, onions or rice! She wants me to make some more. Mods: used 1 cup rice, used 3/4 of a medium onion, cooked rice in chicken broth, used 1/2 can cream of chicken & 1/2 can cream of mushroom, used a whole bag (16 oz, I think) of frozen cut broccoli. Great recipe!! Thanks to the poster and to the reviewers.

I modified the recipe a bit by adding more rice. I also excluded the onions since no one in our family likes onion. The recipe wasn't all that good. It was VERY cheesy, too cheesy for my taste. If I make it again I'll increase the rice even more and use Chream of Mushroom instead of the Cream of Chicken. I am a big fan of Broccoli Cheese Casserole but this recipe didn't come even close to be one of the best. Sorry. Not a keeper. I doubled the recipe because we were supposed to have company for dinner and it took almost an hour and a half to bake.

I love this recipe!! I have made probably 15-20 times, I usually use fresh broccoli that I steam for about 5-10 min. (just a personal preference), and increase the rice to 1c. (which I cook in Chicken Stock instead of water, again personal preference) I prefer Cheze wiz over velvetta for this recipe, but have also used tostidos cheese sauce in a pinch, (it gives it a little zippier flavor) We love this as a side dish with chicken or pork chops, definately a keeper and in regular rotation in our house!
