Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

10 ounces frozen spinach
1/4 cup onion
1/2 cup mixed mushrooms
1 cup cooked brown rice
4 ounces cheddar cheese
1/3 cup skim milk
2 medium eggs
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Thaw the spinach (microwave "defrost" setting, or in a sieve under cool running water), squeeze out the extra water, set aside in the sieve to finish draining.
  • Beat the eggs, shred the cheese, combine, set aside.
  • Mince the onions, slice the mushrooms, or use already-sliced criminis (life is too short to slice mushrooms! IMO).
  • In a medium saute pan, on med-high heat, heat half of the chicken broth, add the onions and bring to a simmer. Allow the broth to nearly cook away, while the onions become brown. Watch it - don't let it burn. As the broth simmers away, add the remaining broth and the mushrooms. Lower the heat as needed to maintain a low simmer. Give the onion/mushroom/broth mixture a stir, and when just a bit of broth is left, remove the saute pan from the heat.
  • Combine all ingredients in a baking pan and put in the oven, at 325 degrees for 35 - 40 minutes.
  • VERY IMPORTANT: be sure to use already-cooked rice.
  • (About cooking the rice ahead - I make a large-ish batch of it, and freeze it in smaller containers; it reheats pretty well in the microwave or skillet.).

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover rice and spinach. It's also a great make-ahead meal. I often make it on the weekend and then reheat it during the week for lunch or dinner.

I'm not a fan of casseroles, but this one was surprisingly good. The brown rice and spinach were a great combination and the cheese was gooey and melted perfectly. I would definitely make this again.

This recipe is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids loved the spinach casserole and they didn't even realize they were eating spinach.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my casserole turned out watery and bland. I think I might have added too much liquid.

I made a few changes to the recipe and it was still delicious. I added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and a bit of red pepper flakes.

This casserole was okay. It was a bit dry and the flavors didn't really come together. I think I would try a different recipe next time.
