This was a winner in my house of picky eaters. I accidently bought zatarans newo orleans style wild rice but used it anyway. It turned out great!

I make this a tad differently. I use leftover chicken, cream of celery soup and only 1/2 cup of mayonnaise. Sometimes I add water chestnuts too if I have them. Very much a comfort food and sometimes I grill extra chicken just so I can make this.

This was delicious! I only had Miracle Whip so I used 1/2 cup of that instead of a whole cup. I also used white rice and topped the casserole with cheese. I am watching my fiancee scarf it down straight from the casserole dish as I type. Thanks for the recipe!

I used half the micracle whip that the receipe asked for, and wouldn't have used more -- it was great, we had very little leftover!!! Next time I may try biscuits on top, or on the side - we do believe it will be a staple in our family

Great recipe....I cook the rice according to the package directions in the microwave, use a can of chicken, drained (from Sams club),1/2 cup of mayo and one can of drained green beans. All done in the microwave...quick and fast!

Excellent! To make a bit healthier I used half greek plain yogurt and half cottage cheese in place of the mayo. Also added some salt and pepper and used a rotisserie chicken instead of cooking chicken. Was easier to microwave for 9 min then broil rather than use the oven and heat up the house in the middle of summer in Phoenix! Probably is great the way it is but this is what we liked!

This is definitely a comfort food. I just had a small sampling and I already feel comforted! That being said, of course I modified the recipe, I always do. I used plain white rice since that's what I had on hand. I fried the chicken till it was completely cooked along with an onion and a jalapeno in olive oil. I also added a can of peas to the mix and cut the mayo in half. For seasoning, I added red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and some cayenne pepper. Since I already pre-cooked the chicken in the pan, it only need a few minutes in the oven to heat everything up. I will definitely be making this again.

I made this the day after I made a roasted chicken so I basically used leftovers to make this casserole. I used lite sour cream instead of mayo and it was very moist and creamy. Next time I am going to do 1/2 mayo and 1/2 lite sour cream to add the flavor that I think this was missing. I will make again. Great recipe for me not to waste food.
