This casserole is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have a bunch of leftover vegetables in my fridge, and this is a great way to use them up.

I didn't have any fresh parsley, so I used dried parsley instead. The casserole still turned out great, but I think it would have been even better with fresh parsley.

I accidentally used regular rice instead of brown rice. The casserole still turned out great, but I think it would have been even better with brown rice.

The casserole was a bit too spicy for my taste. I would use less chili powder next time.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added more seasoning.
