Herbed Lentils & Rice

Directions

Combine the chicken or vegetable broth, lentils, onion, uncooked brown rice, wine, basil, salt, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, pepper, and shredded Swiss cheese.

Turn mixture into an ungreased 1½-qt casserole with a tight-fitting lid.

Bake, covered, in a 350℉ (180℃) oven for 1½ hours or until lentils and rice are done, stirring twice.

Uncover casserole; top with the Swiss cheese strips.

Bake two to three minutes more or until cheese melts.

If desired, garnish the top of the casserole with watercress or springs of parsley.
