Very easy, we liked it! I only had a half a cup of rice and 1/4 cup cheese. I added Ritz crackers to the top. That really made a difference.

 Brenda (Missouri) says:
Super easy and so good. I doubled the recipe. I used green onion to use it up. I added more green pepper for extra taste. I did not use salt; the soup was salty enough for us. My family really liked this. Even my picky child liked it. Will definitely make this again!

This was very good. Like other reviewers, it's the day before grocery shopping and I'm trying to scrape something up for dinner. My kids have named this recipe "Cheeseburger Casserole" and both requested that I make this again as part of my regular rotation. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

 Angelyna Z. (New York) says:
Like others said this was super easy to make. The day before grocery shopping so I used left over rice and instead of the fresh veggies I use onion powder and dried onions and celery seed... I also added some tomatoes I stewed and froze (trying to use up leftovers)... Its in the oven now and smells delicious... I'm baking it uncovered (since it doesn't specify) cant wait to see how it tastes!

I added to cloves of minced garlic with the veggies, also added a can of cream of mushroom soup and a can of peas & carrots along with the cream of chicken. More than doubled the recipe so I could freeze one. GREAT!

 Amy (Virginia) says:
Great recipe! The first time I made it, though, I didn't know if I should mix the chicken soup with water or use it as is out of the can. I mixed it with water and, alas, had a pretty soupy casserole. I know what to do next time. My family loved it.

I was trying to find a recipe for hamburger and rice, found this one and thought I would try it. I didn't have the soup or cheese, but used a tomato based soup instead and used a medium onion and whole bell pepper. It was just great. At the end of cooking added fried onions on top and baked 5 more minutes. Family loved it..Thank you so much!!!

 Jeff (Kentucky) says:
I really liked this. I used chicken noodle soup because I didn't have any cream of chicken. Also laid american slices over the top. Like Sherry said, it was right before grocery day so I used what I had but it turned out great.

Mmmm! This dish made my family smile! I dislike green pepper, so i didn't add any, but I still enjoyed it. I added cheese on the top, too! FABULOUS!

 Sherry (North Carolina) says:
I made this on the fly...day before grocery day, so didn't have all ingredients. I used crm of chkn & crm of celery (did not have green pepper or fresh celery). Added a can of corn (drained) and used more rice (was trying to use leftovers). Also used sharp cheddar and, like Jenna and Susan, added some to top at the end. Very yummy, very easy. We voted it a keeper in our house!

I wonder if cornbread over the top of this would be good
