Well, except for the two 15-year old teenagers who disliked the broccoli. And the mushrooms. And the sauteed onions. Basically, everything but the cheese.
However, everyone else loved it.
There was a minor issue in that it wasn't nearly done at 30 minutes in the oven. I gave it a stir and the rice was sticking to the bottom So I gave it another stir, then baked it for 15 minutes more and that finished off the rice. Next issue was there was no conceivable way that--once I added all the broccoli--everything was going to fit into my large deep oval-shaped Dutch oven. So everything got transferred to a deep 9x13" aluminum pan and the topping was added. Last step is to broil it and that said 2-3 minutes. Mine was slightly charred at less than one minute.
But those are all minor lesson-learned issues and ones I can adjust the next time.
Thank you again for keeping my culinary reputation valid.
