When making cassaroles, I do not put the rice in with everything else if I am going to be freezing or storing. White rice can be frozen in the cassarole but I find that if I use brown rice, it gives everything a distinctly grainy flavor that I find disagreeable. So I will put the rice in a plastic ziploc bag and freeze it with the cassarole. Then I will heat it separately.
