• Saute onion and garlic until tender.
• add undrained tomatoes and basil and bring to a boil.
• reduce heat and simmer for about 3-5 minutes.
• stir in cooked rice, spinach and half of the swiss cheese, salt and pepper.
• grease 2 quart casserole dish and place mixture inches.
• bake 35-45 minutes until it is completely heated.
• sprinkle remainder of cheese and the sesame seeds on top and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400ºF.
• Combine all ingredients except corn flake crumbs and margarine; spoon into 13x9-inch baking dish sprayed with cooking spray.
• Mix remaining ingredients; sprinkle over chicken mixture. Cover.
• Bake 45 min. or until heated through, uncovering for the last 5 min.

Steps:

• Thaw the spinach (microwave "defrost" setting, or in a sieve under cool running water), squeeze out the extra water, set aside in the sieve to finish draining.
• Beat the eggs, shred the cheese, combine, set aside.
• Mince the onions, slice the mushrooms, or use already-sliced criminis (life is too short to slice mushrooms! IMO).
• In a medium saute pan, on med-high heat, heat half of the chicken broth, add the onions and bring to a simmer. Allow the broth to nearly cook away, while the onions become brown. Watch it - don't let it burn. As the broth simmers away, add the remaining broth and the mushrooms. Lower the heat as needed to maintain a low simmer. Give the onion/mushroom/broth mixture a stir, and when just a bit of broth is left, remove the saute pan from the heat.
• Combine all ingredients in a baking pan and put in the oven, at 325 degrees for 35 - 40 minutes.
• VERY IMPORTANT: be sure to use already-cooked rice.
• (About cooking the rice ahead - I make a large-ish batch of it, and freeze it in smaller containers; it reheats pretty well in the microwave or skillet.).
