Casserole#10: Vegetable Alfredo Casserole

I made this last night and it was pretty tasty. I took very detailed pictures which blogger refuses to post in the proper order and I don't feel like posting them one by one. Please excuse my laziness. To make this you'll need:
4-5 whole carrots
1 squash
1 pint mushrooms
3 cups broccoli
1/2 cups rice
2 jars Alfredo sauce

First cook your rice and remember it's always double the water to rice so 3 cups of water for a cup and a half of rice.
Peel your carrots and slice them into what Amy Sedaris charmingly calls "carrot coins".
Place your carrot coins in a bowl with just enough water to cover them and microwave for around 6 minutes. This will help get them tender.
Slice your squash into "squash coins"
Spread your cooked rice into the bottom of a casserole dish.
Pour Alfredo sauce on top.
Place carrots and squash on top
Pour a layer of sauce over the veggies
Add layer of mushrooms and layer of broccoli
Pour last of sauce on top
Bake at 350 degrees for about half an hour.

Here are some horribly out of order pictures. Note the pic of the rice in the pot I finally make it perfectly.








Eli liked this a lot ( he finally has his appetite back ) and I felt great at how many veggies he ate.
Tonight there will be no casserole, we're just having frozen pizza before trick or treating.
