Scalloped Rice

Yum. Can't you smell the cheese and eggs?? It is heaven. And a dieters worst nightmare.

Scalloped Rice

2 c cooked rice

1/2 c butter (melted)

1/2 c grated cheddar cheese

3 well beaten eggs

2 c milk

salt and pepper

combing butter, cheese, milk and eggs. Add to rice. Pour into greased 9X13 baking pan. Put this pan into another that is bigger and fill with 1" water to create a water bath. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.

OK this is kind of like a souffle'. It would be great with something like spinach or red peppers too. I luckily have a pan that is just slightly bigger than this one for the water bath. You could also do this into little ramekins for individual portions. This is a great side dish to pork roast, ham, or any meat. I like the "ham and eggs" effect so I like it with a pork dish. Even ribs (which is what I made this night). You can use brown rice for health, but I do prefer white in this one. Again with the eggs and cheese, not one of the healthier dishes anyway.
