Directions
Bacon Mushroom and Rice Bake, This casserole may be made with regular white rice, but it is much better using converted rice, as regular rice tends to get too soft when baking, when boiling the rice try not to over cook it (see note on bottom of page) Prep time includes boiling the rice and fying veggies This is a very tasty rice dish!, We made this tonight but not sure if our variety of ingredients just didn’t work for dh and the kids I would have to try to make it again , used fresh mushrooms as the other reviewer suggested This was a delish (my boyfriend declared) recipe Kitten, you come up with unique and tasty combinations You truly have a talent I can’t wait for my friends and coworkers to try this (as I doubled the recipe knowing that a Kittencal recipe is a sure winner) Again, I will owe the credit for my cooking to you!
