Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly spray a shallow 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

Combine zucchini, cooked rice, Havarti, and Parmesan in a large bowl. Blend milk, egg yolks, Sriracha, salt, and pepper in a smaller bowl, then pour over the rice mixture and mix to combine.

Step 3

Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold into the egg yolk-rice mixture. Pour into the prepared baking dish.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Sprinkle panko across the top and continue to bake until browned and set, about 10 more minutes.
