Dump And Bake Cheesy Leftover Pork Casserole

"With just 10 minutes of prep, this dump-and-bake cheesy leftover pork tenderloin casserole is an easy dinner that cooks in one dish! There’s no need to pre-cook the rice or the veggies — just stir everything together and pop it in the oven. Why You’ll Love this Leftover Pork Tenderloin Casserole with Rice: - Budget-friendly. This meal takes advantage of pork tenderloin leftovers, which avoids waste and helps save money on groceries. The other ingredients (like rice and zucchini) are also easy-to-find, affordable options. - Easy. For busy weeknight dinners, or for those evenings when you just don’t feel like cooking, it’s tough to beat the simplicity of a dump-and-bake dinner. The casserole comes together with just a few minutes of prep, since you don’t even have to cook rice or saute veggies before popping the pan in the oven. As the rice cooks in the dish, it releases starches that thicken the sauce, so you get this rich, creamy leftover pork casserole without adding extra flour or butter to make a roux. - Kid-friendly. Most children love a cheesy, creamy rice dish. Add some leftover pork (or use chicken instead) and fresh vegetables, and you’ve got a complete meal in one pan (and you don’t even have to think about the sides)! Feel free to adapt the ingredients to suit your family’s tastes, too. For instance, instead of the zucchini, use broccoli florets or frozen peas."
