Brown Rice Cakes

Brown Rice Cakes are so dang delicious and easy to make, you’ll keep this simple recipe in heavy rotation for your mealtime planning. They’re super quick and simple to make. They require just 4 ingredients and have tons of savory flavor, but they’re still enough of a blank canvas that you can totally incorporate any of your favorite spices to make them your own. I love the eye appeal of the stretchy mozzarella cheese in these, but you can substitute with any other melting cheese you have on hand including cheddar or Monterey Jack. You don’t need much to elevate nutritious plain brown rice into an exciting and attention grabbing side dish.
