One of the hardest things for many of us is putting a quality meal on the table during the week. Rushing home from work, maybe having to go grocery shopping, taking kids to different sporting events or practices…whatever it is, we are all busy! This dinner makes things easy especially if you prep the rice ahead of time. It is one of those “mix everything in a bowl and pour it in a pan” type meals. Which is awesome. I’m curious…what are your thoughts on brown rice vs. white rice? As a dietitian, I aim to fit all foods in my diet in moderation. I like this chart that shows the nutrient comparisons between white and brown rice (I pulled this from Today’s Dietitian Magazine)
[Tweet “Need an easy and healthy weeknight dinner? These cheesy broccoli rice cups will do the trick! Going low carb? Ditch the biscuit & eat as a casserole!

I am such a kid at heart that’s probably why 😉
Hope you enjoy! PS – there will be leftover filling to make an extra casserole if you are not feeling like having it in a biscuit!
