Rice And Egg Casserole Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Uhannigan / All my dishes 5 months, 3 weeks ago This is a great way to use leftover rice, and it makes a special weekend breakfast or lunch. It is also very adaptable--you can change the spicing (it is medium hot as written) or add diced vegetables like mushrooms and red bell peppers. Real comfort food!...

This sound like a great breakfast or brunch recipe! Or maybe even as a dinner...I've been doing breakfast for dinner lately and I'm always looking for new ideas!

Okay...I made this for dinner tonight and it was very good!!! The only change I made was to use yellow onion instead of green...I didn't have any green. I used brown rice and regular eggs. By the way...1 1/2 cups of eggs = 6 large eggs. I love the layering of rice, eggs and cheese! This was very flavorful and had a nice amount of heat from all the spicy ingredients! I'll be making this often! I added my photo.

Kinda like a mexican quiche, huh? I would think you
would need to add a little milk to the eggs (if you're not
using Egg Beaters, right?) Sounds good, though.
