Broccoli and Rice Casserole

Whether served as a side dish or as a vegetarian entrée, this inventive broccoli and rice casserole recipe will become a favorite. Substitute a second tablespoon of olive oil for the butter, use two egg whites (or 4 oz. of egg substitute) instead of the whole egg, and use fat-free cheese to create a healthful variation that is very low in saturated fat.
