Ingredients

Cheesy Rice Crust

  • 2 cups cooked rice, brown or white

  • 1 beaten egg

  • 1/4 cup grated cheese

  • 1 and 1/2 – 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

  • salt, to taste

  • handful of chopped parsley

  • pepper, to taste

Filling

  • 2 teaspoons mustard

  • 3 tablespoons butter

  • 4 zucchini, thinly sliced (approx. 4 cups)

  • 1 medium/large onion, chopped

  • 1/3 cup chopped parsley

  • 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste

  • dash pepper, or to taste

Directions

For the Crust

1.

Grease a round Pyrex casserole dish with butter. Mix all ingredients together and press onto the bottom of dish. Bake at 350°F (180°C) for approximately 20 minutes or until it begins to get crusty.

Fill and Bake

1.

Spread slightly cooled crust with mustard. (This can be done easily with a brush.)

2.

Melt butter in a large skillet. Add zucchini and onion and sauté approximately 10 minutes until tender. You can cover the skillet part of the time.

3.

Remove from flame and add parsley, seasonings, eggs, and cheese. Mix well. Adjust seasonings to taste.

4.

Pour onto crust and bake at 375°F (190°C) for approximately 30 minutes or until knife inserted near center comes out clean.

5.

Cool slightly, slice, and serve.

Tips:

Both rice and zucchini need to be seasoned well, as they are naturally bland.

Parmesan rice with zucchini filling What size dish is needed. Also should the zucchini cool a bit before adding the eggs? Also, the cheese in the crust, can it be regular grated cheese? Thanks!

Thanks a million! I am really enjoying Kosher.com. I am always looking for interesting recipes in general (you could say I’m a cookbook “junkie”), but also gluten free for the several members of my family. I made the broccoli mushroom lasagna for Shavuot and I used gluten free noodles (corn based) and it was a big hit! Again thanks!
