  • 3 cups (750 mL) whole-grain dry bread cubes
  • 3/4 cup (175 mL) cooked or canned mixed beans, drained & rinsed
  • 2 Tbsp (30 mL) fresh parsley, chopped (or 2 tsp/10 mL dried)

Directions

Combine 7-grain rice medley and water and bring to boil over high heat. Stir, cover and simmer gently over medium-low heat for 25 minutes or until mixture is tender. Remove from heat and let stand, covered for 5 minutes or until water is absorbed.

Grease a large 2 L casserole dish.

Place 7-grain rice medley in large bowl. Mix in bread cubes, mixed beans, parsley and raisins if using. Stir gently to mix well.

Place garlic, celery and onion in small microwaveable bowl. Spritz lightly with oil or sprinkle with small amount of oil or water. Microwave on high for 30-45 seconds or until tender. Alternatively, sauté garlic, celery and onion in a small amount of oil over medium heat until soft.

Add vegetables to rice, bread and bean mixture and mix well.

Whisk together egg, broth and herbs. Add to dry mixture and stir until combined.

Transfer mixture to prepared casserole dish. Set aside and let stand for 15 to 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Bake casserole for 25-30 minutes, until heated through and golden brown on top. Enjoy!
