I made this tonight, using up some cauliflower & carrots as well as the broccoli. I had already thrown in some chopped onion, so omitted the onion powder. I also used some leftover short grain rice instead of the Uncle Ben's--just as it was on hand. Otherwise, I didn't change a thing!! It was VERY tasty--my picky 2-yr old twins ate about 3/4 cup each!!! I will be making this often!! Thank you!!!

This casserole was DELISH!! I was really uncertain at first, but it was unbelievably good! Very homey and amazing comfort food! My DH declared it 5 stars and called it "love in your mouth" casserole! The only changes I made was to use Cream of Mushroom soup and cooked 1 1/2 cups white rice instead of the Uncle Ben's. I think the curry put it over the top! THANK YOU a million times from my DH (and me)!

I thought this was very good and a great way to use ham leftovers. I used white minute rice instead of long grain and cream of mushroom soup instead of celery as I had no celery soup. I would recommend this recipe and would make it again! Thanks!

This was yummy, but I think I used too much rice.
