Nutty Vegetable Rice Casserole image

This sticks to the ribs! A hearty one-dish meal with comforting flavour and lots of good protein and vitamins. An excellent meal if you want something that fills you up like a meat dish, but is not a meat dish.

Time 40m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup rice, uncooked
1 1/2 cups water
8 large beet leaves, chopped
3 big carrots, chopped
3 tablespoons onions, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup almond butter
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon paprika
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375. Soak rice in water for ten minutes (in the pot you will cook it in).
  • While rice soaks, mix almond butter and milk throroughly in a small bowl. Set aside. Begin to chop carrots, onion, garlic and ginger.
  • Drain and rinse rice, and add fresh water. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer on medium-low for eight minutes.
  • While rice cooks, saute carrots, onion, garlic and ginger in a pan with olive oil until they begin to be tender. While these are cooking, stir occasionally and chop beet greens into bite-size pieces.
  • When rice is cooked, turn off heat and let stand, covered, for ten minutes.
  • While rice stands, add beet greens to vegetable saute and cook until just tender. I prefer not to overcook these so you still have a variety of textures in the casserole and it doesn't turn into a "blob".
  • When rice has stood for ten minutes, remove lid, add almond butter and milk mixture, and stir thoroughly. Add vegetable saute mixture and stir thoroughly.
  • Pour mixture (should be very thick) into a medium casserole and top with paprika and a bit of salt.
  • Cook at 375 for ten minutes, covered. Enjoy!

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.

Just made this casserole and it was delicious! The vegetables were cooked perfectly and the sauce was creamy and flavorful. I added a bit of extra cheese to the top and it was perfect.

This casserole was a hit with my family! The nutty flavor from the brown rice and walnuts added a unique twist to the classic vegetable casserole. The recipe was easy to follow and the dish turned out perfectly. I will definitely be making this again
