ITALIAN PORK AND RICE CASSEROLE
Looking for a dinner that you can make on the fly? This easy casserole has flexibility built right into it, which we know you'll appreciate on busy nights when dinner needs to get on the table fast. It starts with pork, but which cut you use is up to you-try it with pork chops, pork loin or tenderloin. From there, it gets Italian seasoning and the unexpected addition of Progresso™ cannellini beans, a pantry staple that ups the heartiness factor in this warming dinner. It's a riff on classic rice casserole that keeps the easy prep and one-dish cleanup but switches up the flavor for something fun and out of the ordinary.
