cheesy goodness

hey there,

so i did it

i cooked!

Again!

so last night, i made cheesy rice with broccoli
so good, 
&
soo 
easy!

here are the necessary ingredients:


1 cup orzo
1-1/2 cups chopped broccoli florets
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 Tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
1 Tablespoon butter
1/4-1/2 cup 2% milk
salt to taste

here's a link to the recipe:




pour rice into boiling water, let cook for 3 minutes

while you're waiting
chop up cheddar cheese and broccoli

(i used my magic bullet for that)


after 3 minutes, 
pour broccoli in with rice 
and let cook for 2 minutes

after 2 minutes,
drain mixture



once fully drained
pour mixture back into your pot

add both cheeses, butter, and milk




stir up!



and eat!!


 you may enjoy it with a cold brew if you wish
