The box of soup has two packets of soup. You use both packets. The almonds are added when you mix everything together. This is an awesome recipe. My family loves it.
I agree this sounds really good but it is confusing. The recipe calls for one packet of soup but the directions call for two and the almonds are mentioned nowhere. I guess I'll just have to experiment myself but it would be nice to see it corrected.
Pretty good for a side dish but I had to make changes because of ingredients on hand. I decided to use only 1 of the soup mix packages used shallots in place of onions & 2 andouille sausages. So with these changes in mind the dish still had a goodt flavor. I also finished cooking it on the stove I wanted to cut down on the cooking time & keep it w/some extra juice. Not to salty no leftovers. Maybe add a touch of hot sauce next time. I'll make it again.
Ok this is quite funny...as I put the noodle soup and rice in the pot I realized...this is EXACTLY Rice-A-Roni! So if you want' to make it simpler just use 1or2 boxes of Rice-A-Roni chicken flavour add sauted meat and veg...my Christian Rice is in the oven now and smells fabulous. By the way I love Rice-A-Roni!!!
LOVED this recipe. Took as a side for our Thanksgiving dinner and made it again to take to another family dinner the following week. Had to double the recipe the 2nd time and there was nothing left! I loved the way the saugusage and the bell peppers played off of each other and the almonds. I didn't know you could buy frozen chopped onion but we just chopped up an onion. Great recipe! Thanks for sharing!:-D
The recipe says "one package" of the soup mix which contains 2 packets.."use both" Also sprinkle the almonds over the rice as stated at the end of the recipe. Very good by the way!
Over processed and salty taste because of the noodle soup mix I imagine. I didn't like it much. Essentially it was home made rice a roni...with out the home made taste.
This recipe was delicious -- only 4 people and it was devoured. Highly recommend it and thanks for sharing it.
This is a good recipe to have as a meal during the week or as a side dish. I omitted the red peppers and used the dry chicken noodle soup mix. I also omitted the almonds. I chopped a small onion and used that instead of the frozen pack. It was super easy to make and the chicken soup and sausage gave the rice a nice flavor. My kids loved it!
