One-pot innovations
I tried a few new things. In the onion layer, I added a packet of dried chanterelle mushrooms. Then the 1/2 cup rice I sprinkled over that, and then I added 2 Tbsp chia seed. When I added the liquid, I made sure that there was enough to reconstitute the mushrooms, knowing the chia seed would thicken any excess liquid satisfactorily.
Both innovations turned out extremely well. I also used a good sprinkling of spicy paprika on the protein layer—chicken breast, in this case. The greens were broccolini, and they worked well.
