VEGETABLE & RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Spray 2-quart casserole to prevent massive sticking.
• Layer the casserole contents in exactly the order listed above.
• Cover and bake in a 375°F oven for 35-40 minutes.

NUTTY VEGETABLE RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375. Soak rice in water for ten minutes (in the pot you will cook it in).
• While rice soaks, mix almond butter and milk throroughly in a small bowl. Set aside. Begin to chop carrots, onion, garlic and ginger.
• Drain and rinse rice, and add fresh water. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer on medium-low for eight minutes.
• While rice cooks, saute carrots, onion, garlic and ginger in a pan with olive oil until they begin to be tender. While these are cooking, stir occasionally and chop beet greens into bite-size pieces.
• When rice is cooked, turn off heat and let stand, covered, for ten minutes.
• While rice stands, add beet greens to vegetable saute and cook until just tender. I prefer not to overcook these so you still have a variety of textures in the casserole and it doesn't turn into a "blob".
• When rice has stood for ten minutes, remove lid, add almond butter and milk mixture, and stir thoroughly. Add vegetable saute mixture and stir thoroughly.
• Pour mixture (should be very thick) into a medium casserole and top with paprika and a bit of salt.
• Cook at 375 for ten minutes, covered. Enjoy!

CHEESY RICE CASSEROLE WITH TURKEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the turkey breast on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Bake until the turkey is done, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool 5 minutes, then dice.
• Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and cook until it bubbles and begins to smell nutty, about 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the chicken stock and half-and-half. Bring to a boil and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sour cream and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, Brussels sprouts, carrots and bell pepper and sauté until the vegetables begin to become tender, about 5 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
• Combine the vegetables, rice, turkey, white Cheddar and 1 cup yellow Cheddar in a large bowl. Spoon the mixture into a lightly greased 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in a small bowl or microwave-proof glass measure, then add the panko and stir to combine. Sprinkle over the top along with the remaining cup yellow Cheddar.
• Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until the liquid is absorbed, the rice is tender and the cheese is melted, about 15 more minutes.

VEGGIE CHICKEN RICE CASSEROLE
