1 medium onion, finely chopped 2 10oz pkgs of frozen broccoli, cooked and drained 1 stick of butter 2 cans cream of chicken soup 6 cups rice (wild rice is great with this) 1 clove of garlic 3 cups of shredded cheese
Cooking Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a skillet melt the stick of butter. Sauté onions and garlic, until the onions are tender. Set aside to cool.
Steam the frozen broccoli until thawed, then drain well. Let cool.
Cook rice according to the directions.
It is important to allow the warm ingredients to cool before mixing everything together so the cheese doesn't melt too soon.
When sufficiently cool, reserve 1/2 cup of the cheese and mix remaining ingredients together. Put in an oven-proof baking dish or casserole dish (or 2 if needed).
Spread reserved 1/2 cup of cheese on top. Cover with foil.
Bake for 20 minutes, remove foil; bake an additional 5 to 15 minutes, or until cheese on top is hot and bubbly.
Makes approximately 12 serving

"I'm 26 and originally from Ohio. My husband (also from Ohio) and I have moved 3 times in the last 3 1/2 years for his job. Brooklyn was only 2 months old when we moved to Rochester. We decided I was going to be a SAHM and after being in my house with not much to do and going crazy without much adult conversation I actually saw an add for a different mom group. I thought about it, but I had to pay to do it so I started looking online and found RM.
I absolutely love RM because everyone is so friendly and willing to offer up thier advice and own experiences. Being connected with so many other moms has definately made me realize that I'm not alone in anything. I also love getting together with people. Through an area group girls night out I met one of my [now] best friends. On top of having friends on RM and support in general Brooklyn also has a way to socialize. Although I love being a SAHM I did worry about her not being able to socialize like if she would if in daycare, but I don't have to worry about it anymore."
Amy is from Henrietta and has been a member of RM since June 3rd, 2008. She is the co-moderator for the South Area Group.
Recipe of the Week This is probably one of the easiest Mexican dishes you'll make. The chicken comes out very tender, and there's not much to it! Goes great with Spanish rice and cornbread!
*Instead of Taco Seasoning you can use chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and cumin to keep the sodium content down
Directions
Put chicken & taco seasoning in Ziploc bag; shake and coat well. Place breast in casserole dish sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake in 375*F oven for 30 minutes. Top with salsa 5 minutes before done. Garnish with sour cream just before serving.
