Equipment

  • 1 10 qt saucepan doesn't need to be exactly this size, just large
  • 1 6 qt saucepan again, doesn't need to be exactly this size
  • 1 microwave
  • 1 Reynolds Zip n' Steam Bag

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Cans (3/4 oz) Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup
  • 2 Cans Water I filled the empty soup cans
  • 1-2 Heads Fresh Broccoli Frozen could be used as well
  • 4 Cups Milk (can replace 1 cup of milk with heavy whipping cream, to lower carbs)
  • 1 Yellow Onion, shredded
  • 1 Carrot, shredded
  • 2 Bags Success Rice, White cook 2 cups if using a different method.
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp Ground Mustard
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4th tsp Pepper
  • 1 cup Chopped Canadian Bacon
  • 4 Cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese also can use gouda, parmesan, colby jack, etc.
  • 2` tsp Chicken Pollo I use Chef Merito Brand
  • dash Ground Paprika

Instructions
 

  • Shred the carrots and onion, and chop the broccoli to the size you need.
  • Begin to cook approximately 2 cups of rice. Since I use Success Rice, I used 2 bags. Once cooked, drain and just hold off to the side until the end.
  • The carrots and onion you'll sauté' with the butter in the largest saucepan to soften it.
  • Place the broccoli in the ziploc steam bag and follow the instructions on the bag. You can steam it a different way if you prefer.
  • Once the onions/carrots are ready add the broccoli, 4 cans of condensed cheddar cheese soup and the water in the larger saucepan. Cook the soup, heating it to boiling and reduce to medium and cook for 8 minutes while it continues to cook. Stir well during this to keep the soup from burning or scalding at the bottom.
  • Then add the milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, ground mustard, Canadian Bacon and milk and continue to stir while heating it, so it doesn't scald or burn, for 5 minutes. If adding a cup of heavy whipping cream, wait to add that.
  • Now stir in the shredded cheese while continuing to stir for another few minutes. Add the heavy whipping cream if you are choosing that ingredient. Stir in the drained rice. Finally add the Paprika and Chicken Pollo on top and serve.
