Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Mix all ingredients, except the cheese, in a large casserole dish.
• Cover and bake for 40 minutes.
• Stir and top with the cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
• Mix all ingredients except the cheese in a baking dish (I use an 11 x 7).
• Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour 10 minutes.
• Then remove the foil, add the cheese, and bake for an additional 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Use a big pot and cook onion in margarine until soft.
• In a bowl, stir together bouillon and hot water.
• Add lentils, rice, bouillon-water mixture and cold water.
• Bring to a boil.
• Lower heat, cover and simmer 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, fry both sides of a slice of bread in oil and sprinkle with Italian Seasoning blend.
• Cool on rack.
• After 25 minutes, rice should be cooked and lentils should be cooked but still firm (not mushy) and there should still be some moisture in the mixture.
• Turn stove off and stir 1 cup of the cheese into the mixture until cheese is melted.
• Pour mixture into a 9 by 13 pan that has been sprayed with Pam and smooth the top with the back of your spoon.
• Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheese over top.
• Crunch up the cooled fried bread with a knife and sprinkle over casserole.
• Sprinkle parmesan over casserole.
• Bake in preheated 350 oven for 15 minutes or so until cheese is melted.
• Let cool slightly before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°. Mix lentils, rice and broth in 2-quart casserole. Cover and bake 1 hour.
• Stir in frozen green beans. Cover and bake about 30 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Sprinkle with cheese.

Steps:

• Place the rice and 1 cup water in a pot, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer 20 minutes. Place lentils in a pot with the remaining 1 1/2 cups water, and bring to a boil. Cook 15 minutes, or until tender.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat, and stir in the onion and garlic. Mix in tomato, celery, carrots, zucchini, and 1/2 the tomato sauce. Season with 1/2 the basil, 1/2 the oregano, 1/2 the cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook until vegetables are tender.
• In a casserole dish, mix the rice, lentils, and vegetables. Top with remaining tomato sauce, and sprinkle with remaining basil, oregano, and cumin.
• Bake 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until bubbly.
