Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked wild rice
- 16 oz. mushrooms roughly chopped
- 1 yellow onion finely diced
- 3 cloves garlic finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 2 cups cottage cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup shredded gruyere or cheddar cheese
- chopped green onions or chives for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil and add mushrooms. Add a generous pinch of salt, stir once, and allow to sit until they release the water and it evaporates (about 5 minutes). Stir again and sauté until browned (about another 5 minutes).
- Add onion to mushrooms; sauté until transparent (about 3 minutes).
- Add garlic to mushrooms; sauté for one more minute.
- Turn off heat, add rice to mushrooms and stir.
- Meanwhile, mix together eggs, cottage cheese, and sour cream in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add mushroom mixture to cottage cheese mixture, and stir to incorporate.
- Transfer to buttered casserole dish.
- Top with shredded gruyere or cheddar cheese.
- Cover with foil; cook for 20 minutes. Remove foil, cook until browned on top (about 10 more minutes).
- Garnish with green onions or chives, if desired.
Notes
- Pre-cook the rice before assembling this casserole to save time. Store cooked rice in an airtight container in the fridge, or freeze in portions in ziplock bags (squeeze the air out first) if you want to cook ahead in bulk. Use the portions for this casserole or other recipes, like soup.
- Freezer directions: Assemble the entire casserole and refrigerate (for a week) or freeze (for up to 6 months) in an airtight container until you are ready to bake.
- The provided nutrition information does not include any added sodium from seasoning to taste, any optional ingredients, and it does not take brands into account. Feel free to calculate it yourself using this calculator or by adding the recipe to Yummly.
