Cheesy Rice and Broccoli

5 steps
Prep:10minCook:30min
This healthier cheesy rice and broccoli uses my homemade Gooey Cheese Sauce, and is dead simple to put together. Just simmer the rice, roast the broccoli, and mix with the sauce. Nice and simple vegetarian meal with still a decent amount of protein for not having any meat
