Brown Rice Casserole

“As a new bride, I knew how to make scrambled eggs and bran muffins. Unfortunately, you can only live on love for so long. My dear husband held his tongue and ate the many flops that come with being a beginning cook. Many years later, I'm secure in the kitchen, and my family enjoys my cooking. This hearty dish even passes the test for teenage boys.--Glenda Schwartz, Morden, Manitoba”

This was actually one of the only recipes I made without reading the reviews. I really wish I had. I tasted it before adding the cheese and it was HORRIBLY bland. At first I was gonna dump the whole thing but that would've been a waste of perfectly good ingredients so I dumped it back into my saucepan with more veggies, added some chicken stock, got liberal with some seasoning salt, garlic, fresh cracked pepper and-interestingly enough- curry. Now it's fantastic! But I would NOT reccomend this recipe if you're not ready to do some serious doctoring.

This was pretty darn good - a little bland, but that's okay. I used frozen tomatoes and added some sauce for liquid, omitted the peas, and cooked the rice first as per the instructions on the package. I went light on the cheese but wished I'd added more.

I don't know if I missed something the previous reviewer used,but I made this recipe for a covered dish lunch at my house and it looked so dismal I didn't even serve it. I asked my husband to taste it when he got home later in the day and he said "it tastes like library paste." I tasted it myself and it was dreadful. Perhaps needed more seasonings - but I ended up throwing the entire thing into the trash can, couldn't figure out a way to salvage it. My recommendation: don't go here.

This was so easy and delicious! I omitted the split peas b/c I didn't have any on hand, and used diced tomatoes with green chilies to spice it up a bit. A definite keeper! (I'm making it again this weekend)
