From your shelf
- 1 can Cheddar broccoli rice (Hormel)
Staples
- 3 eggs
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- Heat the oven to 375°F [190°C]. Pour the contents of one can of cheddar broccoli rice into a baking dish that will hold it with some room to rise.
- Crack three eggs into a small bowl and beat them with a fork until combined. Stir the eggs into the rice and broccoli mixture until evenly distributed, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bake uncovered until the mixture is set and the top is lightly browned, about 20 minutes. The center should feel firm when you press it lightly.
Note Swap the eggs for three tablespoons of breadcrumbs stirred in for a vegetable side instead. Covered, the casserole keeps for three days refrigerated and reheats in a 325°F oven. Serve with a green salad or sliced tomatoes.
