Ingredients
- 1 cup of leftover cooked rice (mine is mixed of white and brown rice), refrigerated overnight
- 1 - 1 green bell pepper, 1 yellow bell pepper (you can use any color), remove seeds, diced
- 1 - 1 cup sliced fresh shitake mushrooms (or any other mushrooms)
- 4 - 4 slices of turkey bacon (you can use other bacon/sausages/SPAM/etc), cut into small pieces
- 1 - 1 cup grated cheese (I used mozzarella and parmesan, you can use other cheeses)
- - olive oil, salt, black pepper, worchestershire sauce, dry herb mix (oregano, rosemary, sage, thyme - optional)
Preparation
Step 1
Heat up fry pan with a bit of olive oil (the turkey bacon doesn't release much oil. If your bacon releases a lot of oil, omit the olive oil), add bacon until they get browned a bit (do not burn/overcrisp the bacon pieces)... ...add diced peppers and cook until they soften, add sliced mushrooms, cook for a bit until it reaches the desired doneness that you like (I like mine super done and a bit charred). Add leftover rice, season with salt, pepper, a dash of worchestershire sauce, dry herb mix, and mix well. Preheat oven to 400F. Transfer the rice mix (You can sooo already eat this, but don't. At least not all) into an oven proof dish.. ...top with grated cheeses... I also added a dash of dry herbs. Dump it into oven and wait for the magic to happen....15 minutes later... MAGIC. OK, that's an exaggeration. It's no magic, it's easy cooking.
