Brown Rice Gratin image

I got this recipe from Practical Cooking Vegetarian I'm not a vegitarian anymore, but this is a good side dish, and it's pretty healthy too. It's very versatile and can be made with any vegetables that you have on hand. I use it as a side dish. It can be used as a main dish if you prefer.

This was an easy recipe to follow, but the rice was a little undercooked for my taste. I would recommend cooking the rice for a few minutes longer next time.

This was a good recipe, but I made a few changes. I used white rice instead of brown rice, and I added some chopped broccoli and carrots to the dish. It turned out great!

This was a great recipe! I followed it exactly and it turned out perfectly. The rice was cooked perfectly and the cheese was melted and gooey. I will definitely be making this again.

This was a delicious and easy recipe to follow. I used brown rice, but I think white rice would work just as well. I also added some chopped broccoli and carrots to the dish, and it turned out great. Will definitely be making this again!
