Cheesy Sausage Zucchini Casserole


I got this recipe off of allrecipes.com. I love it, and so does everyone else in my family. I changed it a little from what is on allrecipes. Here is my version:
3/4 c uncooked rice
1 1/2 cup water
1 pound pork sausage
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 cup diced fresh tomato
4 cups cubed zucchini squash
1 can sliced muchrooms, drained
1 (8oz.) package shredded cheese
1 pinch dried oregano
1 pinch dried basil
1 pinch cayenne pepper
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
1. Combine the rice and water in a small saucepan, and bring to a boil. reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 20 min. or until tender. Remove from heat, and set aside.
2. Preheat the oven to 350
3. Cook sausage and onion in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring until evenly browned. Drain excess grease. Stir in zucchini and tomatoes, and cook until tender. Stir in rice, mushrooms, and cheese. Season with oregano, basil, cayenne, pepper, and salt. Spread into a 9x13 casserole dish.
4. Bake, uncovered, for about 15-20min until cheese is melted and starting to bubble.
