Vegan Broccoli Rice Casserole Food

VEGAN BROCCOLI RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 °F. Wash the broccoli and cut it into florets. Cook the broccoli either on the stovetop or in an Instant Pot (choose "0 minutes" on manual).
• Grease a large baking dish with vegan margarine.
• Heat some oil in a pan and sauté the chopped onion until it's translucent. This should take about 3 minutes.
• Place all of the ingredients for the sauce into a high speed blender and process until smooth.
• In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, the cooked broccoli, the sautéed onion, and the sauce. Stir carefully.
• Transfer to the prepared baking dish, add the shredded vegan cheese and bake for 15 minutes. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy!

VEGAN BROCCOLI RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 °F (180 c) and have a 3 quart / 2.8 L ceramic or glass ovenproof dish (roughly 9x13x2inch) ready.
• Wash and cut the broccoli up into florets. You can leave quite a long stalky bit on each one to save wasting it.
• Combine the vegan milk and stock in a pan and warm over a medium heat on the stove top until very hot, almost about to boil.
• Meanwhile, add the rice, flour, nutritional yeast, garlic, salt and pepper to the oven proof dish. Stir together to combine.
• Slice the sausages into thin rounds and scatter them across the top of the rice mixture.
• Once the liquid is hot, pour it over the top of the rice and sausage mixture.
• Cover the entire top in broccoli florets. Plant them stalk down in the rice-y liquid. Then if you are using the butter, dot little blobs all over. Doesn't matter where.
• Put in the oven uncovered and bake for 50 - 55 minutes. Use a spoon to dig under the broccoli and taste a piece of rice. It should be soft, or almost cooked, with just a little bit of bite. If it's at that stage continue to the next step. If it's still hard, cover the dish with tin foil or a lid and place back in the oven for another 10 minutes. Then continue.
• Stir it well so the broccoli becomes mixed up through the rice, then sprinkle over the vegan cheese. Cover with tin foil and return to the oven for 10 minutes so the cheese can melt and the rice can continue cooking just a little bit more.
• Remove from the oven, remove the foil and serve up immediately.

VEGAN BROCCOLI RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Prepare rice according to directions, and set aside. You want to end up with ~4 cups of cooked rice.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Gently boil 1.5 cups water on the stove.
• In a large pan add 1/4 cup oil and set stove to medium heat. Add 1/4 cup flour and stir together with the oil very well to make a roux. Once the roux is bubbly turn the heat to low, and add the 1.5 cups of boiling water, 1 tsp salt, 2 tsp soy, 1 tsp onion powder, and 2 cloves minced garlic. Cook for 5 minutes stirring often.
• Add 2/3 cup nutritional yeast and stir it in, continue to cook for another minute.
• Put the rice, broccoli, and sauce mixture into a baking dish, and stir it together. At this point you can add optional things like paprika sprinkled on top, freshly ground black pepper, crispy fried onions, and/or mushrooms. Cook in the oven at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.

CHEESY VEGAN BROCCOLI RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Place the water, rice, butter, and salt in a large pot, put the lid on top, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes.
• Turn off the heat, open the pot lid, and sprinkle the broccoli all over the top of the rice. Close the lid again and let steam for 5 minutes with the heat off.
• Open the lid and use a fork to simultaneously fluff the rice and incorporate the steamed broccoli.
• Add the vegan cheddar, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, and pepper and stir well to combine.
• To serve, scoop as-is from the pot or transfer to a covered casserole dish and keep warm in the oven until ready to plate.

BROCCOLI CHEESE RICE CASSEROLE (VEGETARIAN)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In a skillet melt the butter.
• Sauté onion and garlic, until onions are tender. Set aside to cool.
• Steam the frozen broccoli until thawed, then drain well. Let cool.
• Cook wild rice according to directions. (Use any type of rice desired; wild rice is exceptionally good in this recipe).
• It is important to allow the warm ingredients to cool before mixing everything together so the cheese doesn't melt too soon.
• When sufficiently cool, reserve 1/2 cup of the cheese and mix remaining ingredients together. Put in a oven-proof baking dish or casserole dish (or 2 if needed).
• Spread reserved 1/2 cup of cheese on top. Cover with foil.
• Bake for 20 minutes, remove foil; bake an additional 5 to 15 minutes, or until cheese on top is hot and bubbly.
