Broccoli Rice and Cheese Casserole image

No canned soup or cheese whiz needed for this one, but still easy to make! You could substitute 4 cups frozen broccoli flowerets, just cook them and break them up more.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper, and it was much better.
