Smoked Gouda and Spinach Rice Casserole
Rice is one of my favorite things to eat and I am always looking for new recipes. I found this fantastic recipe at Cooking.com, from the USA Rice Federation. At Cooking.com they have a wide range of recipes like rice casseroles, 30 minute soups, desserts and more. You can even submit recipes and leave reviews for those you have tried, I’m giving this one five measuring cups for delicious!
There is something very comforting about a cheesy rice casserole and this one has spinach and mushrooms for a filling and nutritious side dish that is ready in no time. Plus it has smoked Gouda, and who can resist smoked cheese? I paired this with sirloin steak and Colby-Jack Beer Bread, it was a very enjoyable meal.

Hi
Is there any other types of cheese I could use for this recipe.
Jackie, you could use just about any semi-soft cheese in this recipe. I think something like Colby-Jack, mozzarella, or monterey jack would taste really well.
This looks and sounds amazing! I am on such a mushroom kick right now. This is a must try recipe! Thanks!
