Baked Mushroom Rice

Submitted by Nana Lee

"I love mushrooms, which is ironic because when I was a kid my father would take me mushroom hunting. I hated mushrooms so never paid attention to his instructions except to pick the ones he pointed out. Somewhere along the way in life I began eating mushrooms and now LOVE them. So when I come across an unusual recipe for them, I save it. This is one of them.

MMMM delicious! I cut the recipe in half to suit our family and served it with chicken for Sunday night dinner. It was a big hit with everyone, even my picky 5 year old. Thanks for posting!

A very tasty side dish! Since there are just the 2 of us, I scaled the recipe in half. I increased the amount of mushrooms (cause I love them) and substituted with chicken broth (all I had). I added a lot of extra liquid & removed fom the oven after 60 minutes as the rest of our dinner was ready. The rice (Uncle Ben's converted long grain) still wasn't quite cooked. I'll make this again but double the broth right at the start & plan on 60 - 70 minutes of cooking time. Thanx Lee!
