ONION SWISS CHEESE RICE CASSEROLE
I found this recipe somewhere on the Internet a few years ago and sent it to my mom. She made it and it was very good, so it has become a staple for family dinners. It's a great accompaniment to plain roasted, baked, or grilled meats or fish, and it's just as good reheated as leftovers as it is when first made.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your casserole. Look for sweet Walla Walla onions, sharp Swiss cheese, and creamy butter.
- Don't overcook the onions: Sautéing the onions until they are soft and caramelized will bring out their natural sweetness. However, if you cook them for too long, they will become mushy and lose their flavor.
- Don't skimp on the cheese: Swiss cheese is the star of this casserole, so be generous with it. Use a good-quality cheese that melts well, such as Gruyère or Emmental.
- Season to taste: The casserole should be flavorful, but not too salty or peppery. Start with a small amount of salt and pepper, and then add more to taste.
- Let the casserole rest before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the casserole to set. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Conclusion:
This Walla Walla Sweet Onion Swiss Cheese Casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is cheesy, creamy, and full of flavor. The sweet onions and sharp Swiss cheese complement each other perfectly, and the crispy breadcrumb topping adds a nice textural contrast.
