Mozzarella Rice Bake.

This is a great way of using up left over rice.  It is sort of like a pizza made out of cooked rice and flour so you can vary the toppings as you wish.  Just use your imagination and creativity.

Grease a pan 9 inches (22.5cm) square and set the oven at 350F (180C).

Beat:

2 eggs

and then add in the following:

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp dried Italian herbs

2 tbsp coconut oil

1 cup of cooked ham or bacon, cut into pieces

Then stir in:

2 cups cooked rice

Sift over the batter:

6 to 8 tablespoons flour

Stir lightly and spoon into the pan.  Next sprinkle with:

capers

1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated

Bake for 30 minutes.  Cut into squares whilst warm.  Once cool, remove from pan.  Makes 16 pieces.

Serve as a snack or as a carbohydrate accompaniment to a meal.
