I remember making and eating this Onion Soup Chicken and Rice Casserole back in the late 1950's. I was going through some of my older recipes that are budget friendly and this is the one that caught my eye. I could almost taste this casserole, it is delicious as well as comforting.

I am happy that you were able to stop by today to pick up your recipe for the Cranberry Rice Dressing. I served this dish with Cornish Game Hens and it was a great combination. When I was developing this recipe I wanted a more economical product than wild rice as it is very expensive here in my area. I am sure that the recipe would be good with Wild Rice, but I used the brown rice this time. Cranberry Rice Dressing
