Loved It!February 28, 2009By GlendaLanier
"I made this last night and followed recipe except I used fresh sliced mushrooms instead of canned. I believe there is a typo in the recipe. After adding in the salt. spices and mushrooms I believe it should say to stir in the long grain rice instead of cover and bake. As written it has cover and bake before adding the long grain rice and again after adding the rice which doesn't make sense. After baking, I added the optional sour cream and it was yummy."
