For being so easy to make, this was really good. I'm thinking next time of adding uncooked rice rather than potatoes...I think there is enough juice during cooking time for the rice to absorb. Also, I used cream of chicken soup because I didn't have cream of broccoli on hand...worked just fine. Thanks for any easy but good meal:)

Loved this recipe! I used an 8 ounce bag of frozen broccoli and an 8 ounce bag of frozen cauliflower instead of all broccoli. It was super fast to prepare and made a lot of food!
