  5. Lightly grease the casserole dish and pour in the rice mixture.
  6. Top with remaining cheddar cheese.
  7. If baking immediately after assembling, bake the casserole for 35 minutes, covered.
  8. If preparing this ahead of time, cover with foil and refrigerate for up to 3 days prior to baking. Then bake for 45 minutes, covered. 

Adding the Topping:
  1. Melt the butter and crumble up the crackers. Combine to form the topping for the casserole. 
  2. Top the casserole with the crumbled cracker topping and bake uncovered for 10 additional minutes. 
  3. Let the casserole sit for 5 minutes prior to serving.
