Cheesy Broccoli and Rice with Chicken

    * 2 c. cooked whole grain rice (Tip:  cook your rice in chicken broth or with some ham juice for extra flavor.  I used a little ham juice and water.)
    * 2 cups cooked, diced chicken
    * 2 cups chopped fresh or frozen broccoli
    * 1 c. cream of mushroom soup (1 can would work fine, too)
    * 1 c. shredded sharp cheddar cheese
    * 1 1/4 c. milk
    * 1 tsp. salt
    * 1/2 tsp. pepper

Mix together in a large bowl.  Pour in a 8×11 or 9×13 pan.  Bake at 350° for 20-30 minutes or until heated through and bubbly.
