A hearty and flavorful casserole combining lentils, rice, and herbs, topped with melted cheese for a comforting meal.
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
In a casserole dish, combine the lentils, rice, basil, rosemary, oregano, garlic powder, and chicken broth.
Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the herbs and spices.
Cover the casserole dish with a lid or aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour and 45 minutes to 2 hours, until the lentils and rice are tender.
Check halfway through to ensure there is enough liquid; add more broth if needed.
Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Use a generous amount of cheese for a gooey topping.
Return the casserole to the oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Broil for a minute for a golden crust on the cheese.
Serve the casserole warm, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Pair with a side salad for a complete meal.
