Recipe Introduction
Here is a quick and easy vegetarian rice side dish. For improved nutritional value, use brown rice instead of white.
List of Ingredients
3 eggs, beaten
2/3 cup (160 ml) milk
2 Tbs (30 ml) olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 Tbs (30 ml) chopped fresh parsley

A grinding of fresh nutmeg
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
3 cups (750 ml) cooked brown or white long-grain rice
3 cups (750 ml) grated Swiss or cheddar cheese
2 packages (10 oz, 280 g each) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dryRecipe
Whisk together the eggs, milk, olive oil, onion, parsley, thyme, nutmeg, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Fold in the rice, 2 cups (500 ml) or the cheese, and spinach. Pour into a greased baking dish and bake uncovered in a preheated 350F (180C) oven until bubbly, about 45 minutes.
