Directions
This Cream of Mushroom Chicken and Rice recipe is a super easy and healthy weeknight meal option that the whole family will enjoy!
Plus this whole dish can be pulled together in less than 30 minutes.
I like to chop up a half a head of broccoli finely and add it to this dish.
As it really helps to enhance enhance the whole dish and make it a complete meal.
Also, I use two cans of Campbell’s Mushroom soup. Which makes it really creamy along with a bit of sour cream and milk.
And of course some fresh mushrooms, you cannot skip the fresh mushrooms!
If you have picky eaters in the house, trust me they will not notice the broccoli as it blends in real good.
Another vegetable option that would work well in replace of broccoli would be some spinach.
