EASY BROCCOLI AND RICE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Mix all the ingredients except the cheese in a 2 quart casserole dish (I use the empty can to measure out the water and milk).
• Cover and put in the oven until rice is tender (about an hour).
• Remove from oven and add cheese to taste, wait about 2 minutes or until cheese has melted - there will be a little liquid left, you can let it sit longer for the rice to absorb it.
• Serve and enjoy.
