Adapted from allrecipes.com

 

350 for 30 minutes

Ingredients:

• 3 cups water
• 2 cups brown rice
• 1 lb. spinach, finely chopped (or any other green vegetable ie. kale, broccoli, cabbage, etc.)
• 1 egg (I often use a "chia egg")
• 1 12 oz. can evaporated milk
• 1 cup shredded cheese (any variety will work)

Instructions:

1. In a large pan bring water to a boil.  Add rice.  Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
2. Remove pan from heat.  Mix in spinach, egg, milk and cheese.
3. Pour into a 9 x 13 pan and top with more cheese.
4. Cook at 350 for 30 minutes.

Note: an easy way to chop the spinach or other leafy greens is to use kitchen scissors.
