❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Creamy Rice and Mushroom Soup Casserole
1. Can I use brown rice instead of white rice?
Yes you can. Brown rice will take longer to cook about 40 to 45 minutes. You will also need to add about half a cup more liquid to the pot.
2. Can I make this recipe dairy free?
You can use a dairy free cream of mushroom soup and substitute the butter with olive oil or a plant based butter. The taste will still be creamy and delicious.
3. How do I store leftovers?
Store any leftover rice and mushroom casserole in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat it in the microwave or on the stovetop with a splash of broth or water to loosen it up.
4. Can I add protein to this dish?
Absolutely. Cooked shredded chicken, ground beef, or even canned tuna work well. Stir in the protein after the rice has cooked and let it warm through for a few minutes.
5. Why is my rice mushy?
Mushy rice usually happens from too much liquid or cooking it too long. Stick to the ratio of 2 cups liquid to 1 cup rice and do not lift the lid while it simmers.
