Hello! I wanted to share with you guys a quick side dish for your Thanksgiving dinner. I present my Rice, Broccoli and Cheese Casserole, or as I like to call it RBC casserole. Originally, my mom got this recipe from one of her co-workers a long time ago. She brought it home and wanted me to make for Thanksgiving. I had just really gotten into cooking so I jumped at the chance to be a part of a holiday meal. Ever since that year, I have made this casserole every Thanksgiving (and Christmas for that matter). For a while it was my signature Holiday dish. I have since added to my reportoire but this recipe still holds a special place in my heart.
I have tweaked this recipe so many times, I don't even remember the original recipe. Good thing this dish is incredibly easy to make and versatile! If you don't like broccoli, use a vegetable you prefer (asparagus would be great). Not a fan of cheddar? Try fontina or any other cheese you like. You can even make this a meal by adding chicken or leftover turkey. (Can you say Thanksgiving leftovers?)

New Year's Day is normally a low key affair. Like most people, I do my celebrating on New Year’s Eve. So New Year’s Day becomes sit-on-the-couch-and-do-nothing day. This year, though, Nev (the boyfriend) and I decided to invite the family over because besides my sister, none of my family has seen our new place. I guess you could say it was more like a belated house warming party! Deciding what to make was a no brainer-it HAD to be pizza. Why? Well, my family loves my pizza and they request it any chance they get. (No seriously. Every time I visit my mom’s house, I hear “When are you making pizza?” or “Shakira, you need to make some of that pizza”). So yeah, pizza it is!
