My Mom Betty Day has used this recipe for many years. She Passed Early in 2021. I Still Cook in Both Mom & Dad's Memory. Every Time She Prepared the Mushroom Rice it was Always a Crowd Pleaser. In the early 80's I tweaked it for microwave use. The oven recipe is the preferred method but, the microwave is good as well.
