Variations and Tips
There are plenty of ways to customize this recipe to suit your tastes. Here are a few ideas:
- Swap out the mixed vegetables for your favorite frozen veggies, such as broccoli, cauliflower, or carrots.
- Use brown rice instead of white rice for a healthier option.
- Add some extra flavor by mixing in some chopped garlic or herbs.
- Top the casserole with shredded cheese for a cheesy twist.
When making this recipe, be sure to use regular long-grain white rice. Minute Rice and other quick-cooking rice varieties won't work as well, as they'll cook too quickly and become mushy.
