Even Mexican-style processed cheese for a little kick and fresh broccoli didn't redeem this bland, boring and uninspired dish. Definitely not for the sophisticated palate, so it might just be a real kid pleaser or for those placed on a soft and bland diet (in which case, stick to the plain cheese). Hubby and I would have much preferred a simple, steamed broccoli and a basic rice pilaf. Lots of bother for an unmemorable side dish.

If yours turned out mushy or runny, it is because 15 minutes is definitely not long enough to cook it. It is a typo and should read 45 minutes. The correct cook time is noted at the top (Cook Time: 45 Minutes).

Great recipe but way more work than needed. I cut up the velveeta into chunks and placed them in my casserole dish. Then I poured in the two cans of soup and 3/4 c. milk. I put the casserole dish in the oven at 350 and let the cheese melt. Once it was melted, I took the casserole dish out of the oven, stirred the contents until well mixed and added the rice, broccoli, and chopped onion..I omitted the celery. I cooked it for about 30 minutes on 350. It was a big hit.

I made this recipe last night using my new Allrecipes cookbook. I wish I had read the reviews on the site before I began! However, after making the cheese sauce, common sense told me that there was WAY to much sauce for the amount of rice and broccoli. I doubled the rice and almost doubled the broccoli (used 2 16 oz. packages). The finished results were okay for my family - but certainly nothing I would serve for a special occasion. Still MORE THAN saucy and cheesy enough. I can't even IMAGINE making the recipe as printed.

TASTY! Plus, very easy and quick to make. To make a complete meal, I added 1 lb of boiled/cooked cubed chicken. After boiling the chicken until cooked, I then fryed the cubes with a dash of lemon pepper seasoning and a dash of garlic powder. I then mixed it in with the rest of the casserole and topped it off with a cup of dried bread crumbs. The result was very satisfying and it makes alot! Thank you Gina for sharing!!

Four out of five thought this dish was disgusting. Way too mushy. I had to force it down everyone's throat. I ended up throwing most of it into the garbage. YUK!

I didn't quite understand the reason for all the water and actually didn't use any of it, nor did I use the processed cheese. Instead, I added the soups right from the cans along with shredded cheddar directly into the rice mixture and gradually added some milk and stirred until it reached a consistancy I was happy with. Along with some seasonings this dish was really good.

Awful recipe- very bland! Too many dishes to clean for such a simple side. I would read other reviews before trying. I wouldn't pre-cook broccoli (it was mushy). Add more cheese and broccoli. Add seasoning (and lots of it if you want any taste). Don't add as much water. Basically you need find another recipe.

I'm glad I didn't read the reviews before trying this dish! My mom and husband are veteran broccoli rice casserole lovers and thought this dish was exactly like it should be. It is a bland dish but that's what broccoli rice casseroles are. The only alteration I made was using milk instead of water and it turned out exactly as it should have. I, too, thought it was a bit runny before baking but Mom said, "it will bake fine," and it did. Personally, I like a more flavorful dish so next time, I will add seasoned salt and maybe some garlic. More traditional broccoli rice casserole lovers will want this recipe as is, though! Mama
