Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked rice
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 2 cups ham, diced
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cups milk
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 0.5 cups bread crumbs (optional, for topping)
- 0.25 cups Parmesan cheese (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
Steam or blanch the broccoli florets for 3-4 minutes until just tender but still vibrant green. Drain well and set aside.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, broccoli, diced ham, sautéed onions, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Stir in 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, reserving 1/2 cup for the topping.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the reserved cheddar cheese over the top. If using, combine the bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in a small bowl and sprinkle this mixture over the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Ham, Broccoli, and Rice Casserole!
