Place chicken broth, rice and broccoli in 2-quart saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until mixture comes to a boil (8 to 10 minutes). Reduce heat to medium. Cook until broccoli is tender and rice is almost done (10-15 minutes).





Stir together milk and flour in small bowl until smooth. Slowly add flour mixture to soup, stirring constantly. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until mixture comes to a full boil (4 to 5 minutes). Boil 1 minute. Reduce heat to low. Stir in cheese until melted (3 to 4 minutes).Need a recipe for broccoli, cheese, rice soup?

Dorm Broccoli Cheese and Rice Soup


30 min | 10 min prep | 2 hungry college kids (





Ingredients


1 (4 5/8 ounce) box 10-minute success broccoli and cheese flavored rice mix (it's cheap and easy because the rice is boil-in-bag)


1 tablespoon butter


1/3 cup half-and-half or milk


1 cup frozen broccoli, thawed (or a handful what ever you have on hand)


cheese, cut into pieces for easier melting (I use Velveeta slices)


1 (10 1/3 ounce) can campbells condensed broccoli cheese soup


1 1/4-2 cups milk (this is actually a can of milk and some extra, in case it's too thick for your taste)





Directions


1Boil the rice in your rice cooker according to package directions. When done, drain and place rice back in the cooker. It will be large enough to make the whole recipe and serve as a storage dish for leftovers.


2Stir in seasoning packet, half %26amp; half, butter, thawed broccoli, and cheese. Make sure everything is well-combined and cheese is melted.


3Fold in condensed soup. Add the can of milk and stir to combine. Add more milk to make desired consistency. Serve with oyster crackers or saltines or crusty bread.


4NOTE: The longer this sits, the thicker it gets. To reheat, just drizzle on a little milk to thin out the cheese sauce and ';loosen'; it up. Heat at 30 second intervals on 70% power.
look here: www.allrecipes.com it's a very nice site..... I recommend it
Those 3....add ground beef(cook/drain excess fat)....any choice you like (lean,extra lean....i.e.), 1/2 Tsp savory, 1 Tsp Tarragon leaves.....salt/pepper.....


Then try adding ground ancho chili pepper instead of black pepper for spicy....careful....it's tingly.....use as much as you can handle or about 1/4 Tsp.





Add /delete what you would like....veggies....try tuna instead of beef......minus the savory(meat dishes only)


With the tuna.....add lemon juice(TSP) and all other ingredients....or slices of lemon(2-3)





Those 3 are so flexible to work with.....





Take all the first ones mentioned....look on bisquik or biscuit box....mix some in....bake until done


I know it may not be helpful. Cooking is an experimental idea....what works or doesn't.....for example:


Ordinary tomato soup....any brand even generic.....add small amount of celery seed(thumbnail sized)....tarragon leaves(sprinkle).... let boil 2 minutes. Sprinkle some parmesian cheese...... add toasted grilled cheese as side.


You'll never eat plain tomato soup again.





Kudoes to you for trying to break the ';what's for dinner in a box routine';





.... Okay.... I'm done..... need more help?.... drop an e-mail on my profile page....
