KITTENCAL'S SPINACH PARMESAN RICE BAKE



Kittencal's Spinach Parmesan Rice Bake image

This is a wonderful easy side dish to chicken or meat and any leftovers freeze wonderful, it may also be baked in a 10-inch deep-dish pie plate and cut into wedges, this may be doubled but I would still only use one package or spinach or maybe 1-1/2 packages adding in too much spinach will overpower all other ingredients, prep time does not include cooking the rice --- FOR FREEZING prepare recipe as directed but do not bake, wrap pan in plastic wrap then tightly in foil and freeze, to serve thaw over night in refrigerator, remove wrapping bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes or until hot.

Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach (cooked according to package directions then hand squeezed dry to remove excess moisture)
2 cups cooked white rice (use cold rice for this) or 2 cups brown rice (use cold rice for this)
1/3 cup melted butter
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (can use feta but reduce to only 1/4-1/3 cup crumbled) or 2 cups swiss cheese (can use feta but reduce to only 1/4-1/3 cup crumbled)
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (or to taste)
1/3 cup chopped onions or 2 large green onions, chopped
1 -2 garlic clove, minced (or 1/2-1 teaspoon garlic powder)
3 large eggs, beaten
3/4 cup milk or 3/4 cup half-and-half cream
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper, to taste (optional)
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste)
seasoning salt (to taste or can use white salt)
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, for topping
grated mozzarella cheese (add on the last 5 minutes of baking) (optional)

Steps:

  • Set oven to 350°F.
  • Generously grease a 11 x 7-inch baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, combine all ingredients with a wooden spoon, mixing very well to combine.
  • Season with salt, pepper and cayenne to taste.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake uncovered or covered for 25 minutes or until set (over baking will cause a heavier denser texture if you prefer a lighter texture then bake just until set).
  • Top with mozzarella cheese the last 5 minutes of baking (if using).
  • Note: for a more fluffier texture casserole, 4 eggs may be used.

"This tastes similar to latkes but even easier to make as there is no peeling involved. Double as needed." This is a perfect way to use up left over rice. Modified from http://www.sarahmelamed.com.

Sounds delish and is one of Rachael's budget meal items. She paired these up with pan fried pork chops, but I think it would be great as a main dish with a side or two of veggies!
