Vegetarian Casserole

"This is a very easy dish to prepare, tastes great and reheats in the microwave nicely." Recipe submitted by Teresa of North Carolina.

Recipe Ingredients:

1 (10-ounce) package saffron-flavored rice mix
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened (1/3 less fat is the kind I use)
1 (15-ounce) can Veg-All brand mixed vegetables, drained (low sodium)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Cooking Directions:

1. Cook rice according to package directions.
2. Mix together the cooked rice, cream cheese and Veg-All, and spread into a lightly greased casserole dish. Top with cheddar cheese and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 15 minutes or just until cheese starts to bubble.

Makes 4 servings.
