If you want a healthier option, substitute brown rice for white rice, or use cauliflower rice for a low-carb alternative. Worcestershire sauce can be replaced with soy sauce for a different flavor profile. This dish is similar to the beloved Scallop Noodle Casserole, so feel free to experiment with those ingredients.
