How do you make a Rice-A-Roni rice cup?

Add water to the fill line, microwave for about 3-1/2 minutes, then stir in the seasoning. No stove or pot is needed.

Is the cheddar broccoli cup a full meal?

On its own it is a snack or side. The brand suggests adding grilled chicken and chopped spinach to make it a meal.

How does it compare with boxed Rice-A-Roni?

Same rice-and-vermicelli base, but the cup is one portion and microwaves in minutes. Boxes cost less per serving and let you cook larger batches.

Does it contain real broccoli?

It is flavored with broccoli alongside the cheddar, Parmesan and Romano cheeses; it is a seasoning blend rather than a cup of vegetables.

The cheese blend includes Parmesan and Romano, which are made with animal rennet, so check the label if that matters to you.

Can kids make it themselves?

Yes, with supervision around the hot cup. The steps are just adding water and pressing a microwave button.

Our take on the Rice-A-Roni Cheddar Broccoli Flavor Rice Cup

A single-serve 2.11 oz microwave cup of Rice-A-Roni's rice and vermicelli mix with broccoli and a cheddar, Parmesan and Romano cheese blend. It heats in about 3-1/2 minutes with water, making it a quick desk lunch, dorm snack or side. Compared with full boxed Rice-A-Roni, the cup trades portion flexibility for speed and no cleanup, and the cheese sauce is richer than the plain chicken and beef varieties. It is a convenience food, not a health food: expect refined rice and pasta and a fair amount of sodium.
