Mixed Grain Casserole (from Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook)
2 carrots, sliced 1 cup mushrooms, quartered 1 cup black beans 1 cup frozen corn 1 cup broth 1/2 cup pearl barley 1/3 cup parsley 1/4 cup bulgur 1/4 cup chopped onion 1/4 t garlic salt 1/2 cup shredded cheese
Put everything EXCEPT the cheese in a casserole dish and bake at 350 for 1 hour or until grains are tender. Stir once during the hour. Sprinkle with cheese and let stand until cheese melts.
Obviously, this needs modification - you'd have to sub something for the beans (chicken or tofu?) If you buy presliced mushrooms and substitute frozen mixed vegetables for the carrots/corn, it doesn't take too long to throw everything together. I have never tried to freeze it, though.
