I thought this was delicious. I love fresh mushrooms so added a lot of them instead of the very few canned ones it calls for.
Excellent flavor, Loved it!!

I have made this dish for years and we all love it. Sometimes I do add extra water and garlic powder.
This is my first time making this it was amazing. I used 10 minute rice and that worked really well. If you want more spice add your own you dont have to follow exactly what it says
I've been making this since the recipe first appeared. Just made it again tonight and decided to see if I had ever reviewed it. Can't believe I hadn't. I've had the rice issue too. Thought it was just me. I'll probably just make it separately and add it in. Our packages of kielbasa here also contain only 13 oz. Oh well, it's a painless way to eat a little less meat.
totally edible, but totally lacking in flavor. I just kept wishing there was more spice, maybe spicy tomatoes, something.
I have made this many times over the years. It is truly a family favorite!! I will make it for many more :)
This recipe was a great way to use up vegetables in the fridge and put a new twist on kielbasa. For those cooks that had an issue with the rice not getting soft, here is what I did to solve it. Instead of the 1 1/2 cups of water, I used 1 3/4 cups of homemade low sodium chicken stock. In this modified version, I first sauteed about 1/3 cup onion, added a chopped jalapeno and a small clove of garlic. Then toasted the rice in the butter and vegetables until lightly golden. Then add the chicken stock, bring to a boil, lower to medium low and cook, covered for 10 minutes. That gave the rice a head start. Then add the cream of celery soup and kielbasa and cook, uncovered for another 10 minutes over medium low. Then proceed as the recipe instructs. I added a little fresh parsley and some chives at the end to brighten everything up. Will definitely put this in my recipe rotation. The low sodium chicken stock added a depth of flavor that I really enjoyed. Thanks for posting this.
Very easy and fast to make which was a plus.The only changes I made were I used smoked sausage and instant brown rice.YUMMY!
