Brown Rice Casserole Gluten Free

I have been trying to incorporate more good grains in my diet. You know the whole first of the year, I need to lose some holiday weight yada, yada, yada…

Anyway, my goal is to try a new grain, well,  one I don’t use very much, make that hardly ever, in my cooking and meal planning at least once a month.

This brown rice casserole met all my requirements: new grain-brown rice, tasty, easy to prepare, tasty, healthy, tasty,gluten free and did I mention tasty?!

Brown rice, onion and chestnuts are a delicous combination and don’t forget those mushrooms.

The chestnuts give it the texture I so love.

So, if you think you are not a fan of brown rice, unless it is stir fry or fried rice, try this easy casserole.
