About Arroz de forno

Arroz de Forno, or Brazilian baked rice, is a comforting dish that combines cooked white rice with a variety of ingredients, such as shredded chicken, ham, cheese, vegetables, and a creamy tomato-based sauce. Originating from Brazil, this versatile casserole-style meal is often topped with melted cheese and baked until golden. Its enticing mix of flavors and textures makes it a favorite in households across the country. While Arroz de Forno is a source of carbohydrates from the rice and protein from the chicken or ham, the addition of cheese and creamy sauce can increase its fat and calorie content. Incorporating vegetables like peas, carrots, or bell peppers can boost its nutritional value, adding fiber and vitamins. Moderation and ingredient substitutions, such as using brown rice or lighter cheese, can help make this dish a more balanced option for a healthy diet.
