Here is a simplified version of my broccoli cheese casserole that is not missing any flavor! Super cheesy, tons of flavor and half the work. This is still gluten free but not so dairy sensitive. This can be made the day before serving but don't reheat too soon the rice can get mushy. Cooking the morning of is best if possible. Even if the rice gets mushy it still tastes great just doesn't look as pretty.

I have always been in love with flavor combinations even before I was allowed to use the stove by myself. I would come home from school and test out what was on hand with what I could maybe cook in the microwave. Little did I know I was starting down a life long journey of exploring flavors and recipes that I love and share with the people I care the most about.https://www.instagram.com/theeclecticcook/https://pin.it/vuncaiso65qrkl
