Cheesy Brown Rice

Make a big batch of brown rice at the beginning of the week and have it ready for reheating in your refrigerator, or buy precooked brown rice in the freezer section of the grocery store.

So trust us when we say it’s worth opening the ten squares instead of using a smaller number of wedges.
