It is inconceivable to have lived in Minnesota for any amount of time and not experience the joy and comfort of a hot dish. A hot dish is a baked casserole consisting of a starch, meat, vegetables, gravy, and a crusty top. The starch is typically potatoes or noodles and the gravy is often canned soup. The crusty top is achieved with a layer of cheese but fried chow mein noodles are often used as well.

The hot dish is a mainstay of potluck dinners during the cold months. We had a church potluck this weekend and I wanted to bring something gluten free. Instead of bringing the chili, rice, and the accompanying stuff separately, I decided to put them all together into this Chili Rice Bake hot dish. I am glad I did as it was so much easier to bring just that one dish in my handy dandy pyrex portable bag.

You may choose to cook the chili the day before. This way, you only need to cook the rice and assemble the dish prior to dinner or a potluck.

    This is such a creative and interesting dish. It’s kind of like an Asian fusion using chili and rice, but baked into a casserole. Very smart of you to combine everything for easy travel and handling. Would love this hot dish to keep me warm in this cold weather.

    Biren, another clever and fuss-free idea! I do like it. Something that you could make, assemble and bring to a party and bake at the host’s oven. In the past, I always have to bring the rice cooker to cook the rice, and the accompanied chilli pot and garnishings to go – so many things to bring….

      Yes, this is so much easier than bringing the slow cooker and a bunch of other stuff. Will definitely be doing this again. 🙂

      Most definitely Tiffany! It would be equally tasty with just rice and beans. 🙂

      I will have to make more comfort food as we are expecting some more snow. This can definitely be made vegetarian with a variety of beans if you prefer. Can’t go wrong with rice and beans. 🙂

    I have never heard the term ‘hot dish’ but it is so fitting for a yummy casserole in the middle of winter! And this looks fantastic – so much flavor. Yum!

    Oh Biren, you know, whenever I look at your food it is so often something I make now or a dish that reminds me of my past. I had the best rice bake like this when I was a young teen. I still remember how delicious I thought it was. I was visiting a friend from South America-her Mom made it. I’m not good with casseroles, but maybe I’ll try this.
    p.s. I made your hasselbacks. Yummerz:-)

    I didn’t know this sort of gratin/casserole type dish had a specific name in MN and is a local favourite. I sometimes make something very similar with left over rice or short pasta and stews, braises or curries when the family has had enough of fried rice. This is definitely yummy, comforting and very satisfying!
