Notes

My tip is to NOT over steam your broccoli. You want good texture and not mush. The different textures are part of the appeal. I used minute rice for this recipe. To clear up any confusion, you’re gonna measure out 3 C of rice and cook it. For the topping I used 2 sleeves of ritz + 5 TB melted butter and combined them in a gallon size ziploc bag.
