Convenient canned mushrooms dress up chicken bouillon-flavored rice in this easy recipe from Anita Miller of Sartell, Minnesota. "I used to prepare this dish when we were first married," Anita notes. "Now that the kids are grown and we're retired, I'm using it again."

We've been making this I think since it was published in 2005. It's our go-to rice recipe to accompany fish. We all love it!
