Rice and Chickpea Casserole image

This recipe is from my vegetarian days. It's easy to make and taste great as a side dish to meat as well. This recipe can also be topped with mashed potatoes for a vegetarian version of Shepherd's Pie. Note: 1 cup of chopped vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower or corn can be substituted for the mushrooms.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add more spices next time.
