This was really good and really easy. I added more vegetables and lowered the oil to 1/3 cup. Will probably lower to 1/4 next time. Used Canola for health benefits. I served this with chicken breasts marinated in teriyaki sauce. Will definitely make again.

We didn't care for this, the combination of the soup mix, broth, and soy sauce made it way too salty.

Don't try using brown rice like I did! It didn't cook; would need a lot more time. Also, it was too salty and oily for our liking.

I really did a number on this one. Having no time at all, I put 2-1/2 cups water into saucepan, with one beef boullion cube, 1 cup long grain rice, and one can campbell's mushroom soup. Put on the lid, let simmer 20 minutes, and it was the best risotto I've had in a long time. Delicious!

Yes this is easy to make, but it's too much salt, too much oil. The onion mix provides lots of sodium and MSG. 3 Tble. of soy sauce. That is alot of sodium. Then there is the sodium in the canned broth. Whew! Fast doesn't have to me high sodium and high fat. Cut down on the oil to a couple of tablespoons. Use julst a tsp or two of the soy sauce. Make your own broth and have it frozen in cubes ready to use in your freezer. There are ways of making this healthier.

Pretty good. Very simple to make and quite tasty. I made mine on the stove top in a cast iron dish, only took about 25 mins and I used basmati rice. Will cook again for sure.

While I really liked this, my husband wasn't as enthralled as I had hoped he would be. He said it needed something to "perk it up".....as he reached for the Worcestershire Sauce....which he puts on everything. Why do I listen???

This was absolutely delicious. I didnt change a thing. I will definitely be making this again, although I may try omitting the soy sauce. Thank you for sharing!
