Savory Spinach Rice
"A nice spinach-rice casserole. You can lighten up the ingredients by choosing low-fat soup and cheese and of course, substitute cooked brown rice for white. Prep time does not include initial cooking time for rice."

This was a GREAT way to get my kids to eat spinach. It's really good as is, but we thought it needed a sprinkle of salt and pepper, which is quite an easy fix (I would have given it 4 1/2 stars without salt/pepper, though we don't have the option, but it's definitely 5 stars after seasoning). My kids especially loved the addition of the cheese, and I loved the fresh taste the green onion added to this dish, it was a great addition. So good! Thanks for sharing your recipe, Nancy's Pantry. -
This is comfort food! It reminds me of a broccoli casserole my mom used to make. I halved the recipe, and used fresh spinach that I chopped up before adding instead of using frozen. I'll save this one.....just a great, comforting side dish. Thanks for sharing!

I made a list of small changes and it turned out amazing!! So instead of frozen spinach I sautéed 6oz of fresh spinach, seasoned with salt pepper onion power and garlic powder, used white basmati rice instead of brown, and instead of cream of chicken or celery I used cream of broccoli. Also I didn't bake it just kept it on a low to medium heat after mixing everything together for 5-10 mins -
