Quick & Easy Sides: Broccoli Cheddar Rice

February is American Heart Month – let’s nourish our hearts! Thanks to Campbell Soup Company for sponsoring today’s post!

In my quest to simply dinnertime, I’ve been trying to come up with quick and easy meals from freezer and pantry staples. We always have frozen broccoli, rice, and soup on hand, cheddar broccoli rice makes sense. This side dish would be great with baked chicken and smothered pork chops. You can even add some bacon or sausage to the dish for a full meal. I hope you enjoy the recipe below and put your own spin on it!
