I did not find this meal very good. Maybe it was just me but it tasted WAY too much like mayo. I felt as if I were eating spoonfuls of mayo and it really left a bad taste in my mouth. I also did not like the water chestnuts and if I were to make this again which I won't be I would omit them all together.

I think the water chestnuts made the dish. Great texture. My husband really liked this dish. I had to add some Frank's red hot for more flavor.

This is really good. I used Uncle Bens Wild rice and it just came out perfect. I will make again and also make extra to freeze to pull out when we need a ready to go meal.

Great recipe, very good and and healthy, I used miracle whip instead of regular mayo. Also put a can of diced tomatoes in it, the whip and the tomatoes gave it a little bit of a tangy zip. I love my green beans tender so i boiled then hard the whole time the rice was cooking, also topped it all with French fried onions. Turned out great! Definately will make again.

This does indeed make a lot! Very good! I decreased the amount of mayo and added a little bit of ranch dressing, which gave it a nice flavor.

My dad made this for me since I was a child. I make it all the time now. Easiest meal for the time, and left overs last all week.

Almost the exact same recipe as the Paula Deen recipe I've been using for years. Our family enjoys Paula's recipe very much--it uses the Uncle Ben's wild rice mix.

I have made variations of this recipe before, and it is very delicious. I use long grain wild rice instead, it makes it much better. And make sure to add a sleeve of crushed ritz crackers on top...it will look and taste better!
