Expert Tips

Serve this rice casserole immediately. Rice continues to absorb moisture as it stands, so the casserole will lose some of its creaminess.

If you are watching your sodium intake, use reduced-sodium cream of chicken soup.

    I found this recipe pretty tasty! I substituted frozen diced carrots with peas for the carrots, and cream of mushroom soup instead of cream of chicken, because that's what I had on hand, and it turned out fine. We probably will fix this again.
