I made this up when we had a family party and I needed another side dish. You can use any flavor of Rice-a-Roni, I prefer Four Cheese or Broccoli Au Gratin. I've only used chicken or turkey, but feel free to experiment with other types of meat, or add vegetables if you wish. This is a very versatile recipe! :)
