Broccoli Brown Rice Casserole is a favorite for rice loving children and for us big kids too. Easy to make and a classic recipe all year round.
Have you ever noticed how much children like rice? Of course, it usually has soy sauce on it but this Broccoli Brown Rice Casserole is another favorite for little ones.
The cheese is a mild one. I used a vegan jack cheese that melts and melds right along with the sweet green bell peppers. Simple and flavorful.
Not only is this a wonderful meal throughout the week but it is a classic that is served at all the holidays from Easter on through Christmas.
Simple and uncomplicated.
