Cheap Eats: Mixed Vegetable Brown Rice Casserole

I created this recipe to help me begin to work through using 30 pounds of frozen mixed vegetables that I bought for just $16.50.  Here's a link to that story!

This was the first dish I made from my epic vegetable haul.  It is super easy, goes together in just minutes, and is both filling and versatile.

Mixed Vegetable Brown Rice Casserole

Ingredients: 

 2-3 Tbsp water

1/2 medium onion - diced

2 cloves garlic - minced

5 cups zucchini - chopped into small cubes

4 cups mixed frozen vegetables

1 1/2 tsp. onion powder

3/4 tsp. garlic powder

1 Tbsp Bragg's aminos

4 cups cooked brown rice 

Instructions: 

Add water, onion, and garlic to the bottom of a large skillet.  Cook on medium heat until the onion and garlic are softened.  Stir in onion powder, garlic powder, and Braggs aminos.  Stir in zucchini and frozen vegetables.  Stir everything together and reduce heat, stirring every few minutes.  The vegetables should be cooked through in 15 minutes.  Pour over cooked rice, stir, and serve.  

That's it!  It is so easy and seriously delicious!
