1 cup enriched long-grain white rice
2 (10-oz.) packages frozen chopped spinach
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
4 large eggs, lightly beaten

Spinach Rice Bake

Directions

In a saucepan, combine 2 cups water and rice. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover with lid, and simmer 15 to 20 minutes, until all water is absorbed. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork. Let cool completely.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. To a large microwave-safe bowl, add the spinach. Cover and cook on high 6 to 8 minutes, stirring halfway through. Let stand covered 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Drain.
In a large bowl, combine spinach, rice, cheese, eggs, butter, milk, onion, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and herb leaves. Pour into a 10x7" baking dish. Bake until bubbly, about 20 to 25 minutes.
