Ingredients
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 2 cups ham, diced
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup milk
- 10.5 oz cream of mushroom soup
- 2 cups white or brown rice, cooked
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
Step 2
Blanch the broccoli florets by boiling them in salted water for 2-3 minutes until just tender. Drain and set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until fully mixed.
Step 4
Add the cooked rice, diced ham, blanched broccoli, and 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese to the bowl. Mix until the ingredients are evenly coated with the sauce.
Step 5
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Step 6
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.
Step 7
In a small bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs with the melted butter until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the cheese layer.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.
Step 9
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
