Tried this using brown rice tonight, but chookies absorption method in the thermoserver didnt work with the brown rice - I ended up putting it into a saucepan and boiling it for a bit longer.  Also added 1/2 zucchini grated to the sauce to get extra veg into the kids.  Yummy!   Would do the brown rice again, even though I had to cook it separately.  5 stars *****
I see Karen used brown rice ;) :D

Ok this is now in the oven.
Cooked brown rice this afternoon and made sauce.

Put a little cooked spinach on top of the rice. Used leftover chicken and mushrooms as Uni suggested and put sliced tomatoes on top under the cheese on one and no cheese for me.

Here are the pics pre oven.
It was really good. My neighbour said similar to moussaka in texture. The spinach in it was great.
Thanks everyone for recipe and suggestions, keep on experimenting!
I liked it without the cheese, and the tomatoes stopped it drying out.



And served with coleslaw

 I just had to make this again today.  I baked it in a 22cm square dish for a chunkier slice.

That's a great idea Judy. Think I will try it that way too. We love this recipe.

This is a favourite recipe in our house.  I regularly use brown rice now, and cook it in the rice cooker.  I usually double the amount of rice and freeze half to use next time I make the recipe.  Then I just heat up the rice a bit before adding the egg and lemon pepper.

I really like the ideas about the added spinach and tomato and mushrooms too.  Thanks for those!

Mum's freezer is almost empty so I made a batch of this sauce today, added some peas, corn & pineapple pieces, left out the egg and poured it over rice in these little dishes for individual serves.

We had this again tonight. I had forgotten how nice it was. I only make a half quantity for the three of us.

I made this today for the current mini-loaf tin recipe challenge.

I lined the bottom of the oiled pans with baking paper, some just the bottom and others up the sides to use as a handle for ease of removal just to check which method worked best.  Baked for 25 minutes only as I under bake when something is going to be frozen and reheated later. 30 minutes and they would have been nice and brown on top if you wanted to serve immediately.  Leave to rest for 5 minutes before removing from the tins.

Those with baking paper up the sides worked best of course but if they were allowed to cool completely, the other method would also work..  Me being a bull at a gate, couldn't wait for that to happen of course so they were quite difficult to remove in a tidy piece.

I made this for dinner tonight.  I added some spinach and topped it with tomato as suggested and a little grated cheese on top.
