Tuna Rice Casserole

Ingredients

• 2 cups cooked rice
• 2 cans (5 oz each) canned tuna, drained
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, drained tuna, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and frozen mixed vegetables. Stir until the ingredients are well mixed.
3. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly to ensure even seasoning throughout the casserole.
4. Transfer the mixture to a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
5. In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with olive oil. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the casserole.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is heated through.
7. Remove from the oven and let it sit for about 5 minutes before serving. This will allow the casserole to set slightly for easier serving.
