Healthy Tuna Brown Rice Casserole

This healthy take on tuna casserole is every bit as delicious as the original. It's brown rice baked in a creamy cashew sauce with canned tuna, peas, and crunchy croutons on top.

INGREDIENTS

– Raw cashews – Brown rice – Sea salt – Garlic – Peas – Canned tuna

Bring the brown rice and 3 cups of water to a boil in a medium-sized pot. Lower the heat, cover the pot, and cook until the rice is soft, about 40 minutes.

1

While the rice is cooking, prepare the rest of the casserole. Drain the cashews and place them in your food processor or blender with 2 ¼ cups of cold water, sea salt, and garlic.

2

Blend on high until smooth and creamy. Stir in the frozen peas and tuna.

3

Place the bread crumbs in a medium-sized bowl and toss them with olive oil.

4

Once the rice is cooked, preheat your oven to 350 degrees and assemble the casserole. Begin by covering the bottom of a 9×11 inch casserole dish with a thin layer of the cashew cream sauce.
