How To Make 3 cheddar rice casserole with parmesan mushrooms

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 2-quart baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  • 2
    To make the casserole, prepare rice according to package directions.
  • 3
    Place sliced mushrooms in a large ziptop bag, season with salt, seasoned pepper and garlic powder, and shake it well. Add Parmesan cheese and shake again, until blended.
  • 4
    Melt the magarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and saute until they release some moisture and begin to brown, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove mushrooms from heat. Set aside.
  • 5
    To make 3 Cheddar Cheese Sauce, combine half and half, margarine and cream cheese in a large saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently until margarine melts. Gradually stir in the cheeses. Reduce heat to low and continue to stir just until the cheese is melted.
  • 6
    Combine rice, mushrooms and half the sauce in the prepared baking dish. Mix well and pour remaining cheese sauce over the top.
  • 7
    Top evenly with the crushed crackers and sprinkle with shredded white cheddar cheese over the top.
