CHEESY FIESTA CHICKEN AND RICE BAKE

This is a modification of a recipe I found on a Campbell's cream of chicken soup can. It was entirely a trial and error run, but it turned out absolutely great! The great thing about this recipe is that you can modify it to fit your own tastes. If you love vegetables, add veggies. If you like spicy food, season your chicken with hot seasonings. It's an easy fix for any number of people and you'll find yourself making it over and over again. I know I did!

CHEESY FIESTA RICE



Cheesy Fiesta Rice image

I made this rice dish a few times before switching to a low-carb diet. It makes for a good side dish or meal. It is very flavorful and tasty! Boiling the rice in chicken broth really brings out a good flavor. I made it with white rice, but I bet whole grain rice works great too. I wanted to share this with those of you who love...
