    I’m going to have to remake this I think my cream of mushroom soup was old and I added to much water it left a funny taste in my mouth

    Super quick and easy and my family loves it. I have to double it so they can have leftovers for the next day.

    This is so so good! I also pre-cooked my rice since I didn’t have any instant in the pantry. Just mixed it in with everything right at the end and just let it warm up. I did add a little soy milk to thin out the soup (since I wasn’t adding the water for the rice). Delicious! Thank you so much for all these recipes!

    I made this for dinner last night and it was a BIG hit, even my picky five year old cleaned her plate! Thank you so much for all the work you do on these. Also, to answer someone else’s question above, I didn’t use instant rice I just made regular white rice and mixed it in with the broccoli and soup, and it was still delicious.

      Could this be done minus the instant rice? In other words, can I throw this dish together and then serve it over leftover cooked rice?
