This recipe is perfect for potlucks or church suppers since it produces a big batch and has flavors with broad appeal. Most folks can't guess that the secret ingredient is chicken noodle soup mix. -Naomi Flood, Emporia, Kansas

I made this recipe exactly as stated with one exception, I used two full envelopes of dry chicken noodle soup mix. It came out more like a soup than a casserole??? Is the rice supposed to be cooked before adding to the mix???

Took a chance and made this for the first time to take to a covered dish dinner with some girlfriends. I liked it OK but got so many compliments and none was left. One friend said it tasted just like the one her Grandma used to make, so that was quite the compliment. My husband loves it too so yes, will definitely make it again. The only change that I made was to chop the celery instead of slicing, since I am not that fond of the celery, but love the flavor that it adds to dishes.

I left out the creamed soup due to a gluten sensitivity and it was really delicious! Will definitely make it again!

This is really quite tasty. It makes a lot, so we had a couple of meals and a couple of lunches out of it. If you need to watch your sodium, this is not the recipe for you. 771 mg of sodium per 1 cup serving - that's a lot.

Inexpensive to make and feeds a crowd. The group I fed even had a few fussy eaters and it went over well. I will definitely make again!

I found this recipe 4 years ago in Taste of Home magazine that my Grandmother gave me. My family absolutely loved it, then a year ago I lost the recipe and had forgotten what magazine I had found it in. I am so glad I have found it again! Just in time too! This weekend is the first time I am meeting my boyfriends parents, they are coming over for dinner and this is going to be a wonderful dish to serve as a first impression!

I made this for a Meetup group potluck and it was very well received! I used 1lb of mild sausage and 1lb of spicy to give it just a little kick. I will be making this one again!

Very good recipe. I cut the amount of sausage to about 1 1/2 lbs, mainly to save money.
