This was so yummy! I didn't follow the amounts exactly, I used more rice, chicken, celery, nuts, onion, and had a 16 oz can of cream of chicken soup. However this was such a good use of leftovers and stuff I needed to use up (celery) and my husband LOVED it! I think even my 93 year old grandfather who has gotten picky in his old age would like this! I bet you could even use cream of celry soup or cream of potato if you wanted a milder flavor, the possibilities for tweaking this recipe are endless! I will definitely make again!
