Notes
I use basmati rice for this recipe.
You can use any combination of condensed cream of soups. Cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup or cream of celery soup all work great.
I suggest using unsalted cream soups in this dish to control the sodium.
I have never made this with brown rice, so I cannot speak to the adjustments that need to be made
