Adapted from Hiedi Swanson’s recipe in Super Natural Cookin<\/span><\/a>g, a great cookbook I recently checked out from the library.\u00a0 This recipe is flexible.\u00a0 Great for leftover rice–I used a rice cooker which is my favorite gadget with a plug after the coffee maker and grinder.\u00a0 Use different vegetables, or different dairy products, or grains!\u00a0 Go nuts!\u00a0 (mmm you could add nuts, even, or dried fruit…)<\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/p>\n

1 lb mushrooms (any kind)
\n1 large onion
\n4 cloves garlic
\n5 cups of cooked rice (I used a combination of wild rice and brown rice)
\n1 cup of cottage cheese or ricotta
\n1.5 cups of yogurt or sour cream
\n2 eggs
\n1 head of kale
\n1 bunch of broccoli
\nsome fresh thyme leaves
\nolive or grapeseed or other oil
\ns + p
\n1 cup grated gruyere or other swiss-y type cheese.<\/p>\n

Sautee the mushrooms in two batches, leaving space around them so they brown.\u00a0 Transfer to a big bowl.\u00a0 Saute the onion till translucent, add it to the bowl.\u00a0 Saute the garlic for 1 minute then add the kale, season with s + p and saute till wilted slightly and bright green, transfer to the bowl.\u00a0 Saute the broccoli (season with s + p) until its just cooked but not too soft, add it to the bowl.\u00a0 Meanwhile, mix together the cottage cheese, yogurt and eggs, thyme leaves, and s + p to taste.\u00a0 Finally, mix the vegetables, rice and cheese\/egg mixture together and spread in casserole dish (9 x 13 is good, but whatever you have is fine).\u00a0 Sprinkle the grated cheese on top, cover with foil, and bake in the oven for 30 minutes.\u00a0 Take off the foil and check on it after 20 more minutes–bake until the top is crusty brown.<\/p>\n

We served it with Clare Sullivan’s beautiful homemade bread:<\/p>\n

And frozen peas.\u00a0 Because who doesn’t love a nice little pile of peas with their casserole?<\/p>\n
