Yummy and easy! My family loved it. Following other recommendations, I used whatever cheese I had on hand and shredded it (colby and cheddar, I think). I mixed some of the cheese in with the other ingredients, and used some to top the whole thing off. I cooked the chicken in a crock pot (just easier for me to do it that way) and shredded it. I boiled the frozen broccoli a few minutes before mixing it in w/the other ingredients, and everything turned out great. It was simple and good and I will definitely make it again!

My 2 small kids loved it, my boyfriend loved and even I thought it was pretty good. I used 1 can of cream of celery instead of mushroom Or cream of chicken because that was all I had. I also used several different kind of cheeses like sliced cheese, shredded taco cheese and some monterrey chedder. It was very tasty. I used boneless chicken breast also. Others who do the same may want to cook chicken half way(at least) before putting in oven because my dish took about an hour and 15 minutes because I placed casserole in oven with the chicken practically raw I just sauteed for a couple mins. It was very good and it was not soupy at all. It was thick and very filling! No leftover tonight!

I wasn't so sure about this recipe at first, but after making the adjustments that others suggested it turned out great! I added Onion soup mix instead of the onion, brown rice to make it a little more healthier, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, and left out the butter. It was really good! Will make again!

I made quite a few changes to this recipe based on posted reviews. First I use boneless chicken breast (cubed) sauted in a skillet with minced garlic and salt and pepper. For the water I use chicken broth (14.5 ounce can), only 3/4 cup of skim milk, add 1/2 cup light sour cream, omit butter, instead of onion use 1 tbsp. of onion powder, add 1 tsp. garlic powder and 1/2 tsp. black pepper, for the cheese I use half shredded Sharp cheddar cheese and half cubed processed cheese food, the rest of the ingredients remain the same. Combine everything in a large bowl, pour into a baking dish and follow baking directions. Turned out wonderful and NO LEFTOVERS:) Thanks for posting and for all the great help from the reviews.

This was a tasty recipe, however, I did make a few changes, and would still make another change next time I make it. I used regular, long grain white rice instead of instant (I just like it better). Also, I combined about 1/2 cup plain dry bread crumbs with about 1 tbsp. melted butter, and sprinkled the mixture on top of the casserrole (for an au gratin type of topping.) The next time I make this, I will not use an entire pound of processed cheese - it is way too much. I'd probably cut it in half. Otherwise, this was a good, easy recipe.

Everyone who has tried this has asked for the recipe. It is easy and never lasts more than one day. I have begun to add mushrooms, a family favorite, and I top the casserole with crushed doritos for extra texture. The best part is my son who hates vegetables does not even notice the broccoli!!

I made this for my girlfriend for dinner tonight and it was fantastic. I have plenty of leftovers and am looking forward to dinner tomorrow as well. She loved this meal, said it was one of the best normal night dinners I've ever made for her (I've made some pretty spectacular special occasion meals). Desert was also fantastic.

NOTE: The main issue with this dish is the rice. Depending on what kind of rice you use you could end up with too much rice, or a little extra liquid. If the kind of rice you use doesn't "expand" as much as what the directions call for, you may need to make more. The first time I made it I think I had too much rice- it was hard to find the chicken! But I discovered the hard way it's better to add more chicken and broccoli than to mess with the liquid ratio. I also always use the 16 oz of half jack/cheddar instead of processed cheese (sounded too fake tasting). Small changes, but the flavor was spot on delicious, every time. A keeper!

This recipe was easy to make and delicious, although I did make a few changes. Added more seasoning, less cheese and didn't use instant rice. It makes ALOT of food...we had to throw some of it out, we couldn't eat it all, so next time I think I am going to half the recipe. Will definitely use this again.

I reduced the water to 1 and a half cups and still found the recipe to be quite soupy at first. I'd likely decrease the milk by half next time I make it. The taste was fantastic and my family enjoyed it. I took it as leftovers for lunch the following day and thought it tasted better than the night before - primarily b/c it was no longer soupy? Perhaps I'll allow it to sit a bit longer before serving it next time. All in all, a good recipe that I'll make again.

I really love this dish--it's one of my go-to weekday dinners, and I always split the casserole between two 9x9 baking dishes and freeze one, so we get two meals out of it. I use different cheese mixtures every time, and it always turns out great. I've used fresh and frozen broccoli, and both work well, I always use "real" cut up, seasoned and cooked chicken breast, and I always use brown rice for some extra nourishment. It tastes delicious!!!

I made this exactly as the recipe was written and it was OK... The kids said they would like it better if it had REAL chicken in it (not the canned stuff).

did not like this, it was so soupy and cheesey. i followed the recipe exactly. we mixed the left overs with more rice the next day and it was better, but i will not make this again. too much cheese, and i think too much soup too. it was kind of like a pile of slop.

4 stars, based on how easy and fast the recipe is, while still being tasty. Tasted even better the second day. Hard to mess up, everyone liked,...definitely "comfort food". A keeper for when you are feeding a large group of people, and a one-dish casserole is the easiest way to go. Served with salad and crusty bread.
