Brown Rice and Lentil Casserole

If I could give this one million stars, I would. This is amazing. The flavor and ease of this recipe is fantastic. Not to mention is cheap to make. Thank you Ladypit, this is a keeper.

I made this for lunch today and it was absolutely yummy! The only changes I made was to use 2 cloves of fresh garlic instead of powdered and I added some frsh ground black pepper. I cooked at 300 for the hour and ten minutes as stated, then I stirred it and topped it with the cheese and cooked for an additional 30 instead of 20. After I took it out I let it cool for 10 minutes and then served it. It was perfect consistency, not runny at all.

This has been a favorite in my family for years; ever since my sister introduced us all to the "Tightwad Gazette"!! It is very kid friendly and satisfying for adults.

I like the idea of this recipe but found it very liquidy after cooking the stated amount of time. I spooned it into bowls and microwaved it for 3-4 minutes to cook off the liquid. The texture and flavor were great. I may need to increase the oven temperature or try cooking this on the stove top. Thanks for a new lentil recipe to try.

So easy! I baked it at 375 for 1 hour, then another 15 minutes after adding the cheese. We also threw in some fresh basil. This is a great busy day dinner. Thanks, ladypit :)

This was a great dish! I had something else baking, so I ended up cooking this for 50 minutes at 375, and it came out wonderfully. I also had no onions and substituted onion powder. Very flavorful and delicious! Thanks!

This was so easy and delicious! I used mozerella cheese and parmesian to top. I love this recipe because it's healthy, hearty and makes great left-overs! Thanks ladypit!

We were pretty apprehensive about this recipe as we had never had lentils before. The first bite or two we both thought it was just okay but the more we ate the better it tasted and the more we liked it. I did use three cloves of crushed garlic instead of garlic powder (fresh is always best) and it went well with the italian seasoning. We will make it again. Thanks for sharing.

This was SO good. I mean GOOD! For so few ingredients it was amazingly good. I baked it for one hour and 40 minutes and then added the cheese and turned the oven off. I used bits and pieces of cheese that I freeze for occasions like this when I need a topping. Holy cow... this was TOPS as far as taste. I used the Italian Seasoning by Leanne Italian Seasoning and OMG this was out of this world delicious. I served with roasted broccoli with garlic and olive oil. Mmmmm...

This is a great meatless dinner. I used Parmesan cheese and it was fantastic. Thanks!

I make this on a weekly basis, it's easy and pretty inexpensive to throw together. I usually add more onion, as I am a huge onion fan, sometimes I've gone without the cheese (give it an extra ten minutes to cook so it's not all 'soupy') and I'll change up the spices everytime I make it, depending on what I feel like that night. All in all, awesome receipe, thank you!

This is a great recipe...it requires next to no effort and the result is delicious! The seasonings blend well and hold (I used more garlic powder as well, and I used Herbes de Provence rather than Italian Seasoning since I didn't have any...I think they're about equivalent). I used cheddar cheese, but I think when I make it again I'll use a mix with something like fresh Parmesan and Romano...I didn't feel like Cheddar was the best compliment to the dish. Thanks for the DELICIOUS recipe! It's a keeper!

My son recently became a vegetarian so I started looking here for vegetarian recipes with good ratings. This one was terrific. Great flavor and hearty enough that we didn't miss the meat at all. I will definitely be making this again!

Phenomenal! I will be making this again and again. I made mine with medium cheddar cheese grated over the top. I also served buns alongside for the nay-sayers in the family. They put their lentils on the bun and made like a lentil "burger". I just ate mine as is. Perfect. I loved the texture and the flavour was great! Thanks!

I'm always looking for ways to add fiber into our diets so when this caught my eye, it was a easy pick. I used my own stock and followed the recipe to a tee. This smelled great while it was cooking and it is very tasty. Love that it was salt free. I'll be making this on a regular basis.

For something so simple, this was really good and made a very healthy dinner. I did add more garlic than called for and added salt at serving. Good stock is important, so I'd suggest using homemade. I love the other suggestions of adding carrots or tomatoes to change things up a bit, but found it quite tasty as is with some reduced-fat cheese on top. Thanks, Jen, for sharing a healthy and economical recipe!

I was looking for a lentil recipe besides lentil soup, and found this one. I just made this for dinner. It was great! I cooked it exactly as written except I took the recommendation of other reviewers and added some sliced carrots. I think next time (yes, there will be a next time!), I will add a cup of chopped tomatoes. I also love the fact that there is no salt in the recipe, since I am watching my salt intake. Thank you for sharing your receipe!
