VEGETABLE & RICE CASSEROLE
This was so GOOD! I had stuff left over. We are on a very tight budget, which precludes the extravagant waste of food, so I concocted this recipe in order to stick to my guns, so to speak. It was WAY good, and you can substitute your own ingredients. It is mega-versatile. Enjoy it! NOTE: You can also add pre-cooked meat to this, and season accordingly to make a one-dish meal!

- Don't be afraid to experiment with different seasonings. This recipe is a great base, but you can add other spices and herbs to taste.
- Let the casserole rest before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and the casserole to set.

This recipe is a great base, but you can easily customize it to your liking by adding different vegetables, seasonings, and cheeses.
