Chicken and Rice

I am willing to bet that "Chicken and Rice" will be the most simple dish you see in this blog. For as long as I can remember, whenever I was sick, my momma would make this for me. In fact, there is not really any chicken (any real chicken) in the dish. I made it last night to ease my upset stomach and just thought I would share in case anyone has the flu, some rice, and cream of chicken soup.

  • One can Campbell's Cream of Chicken Soup
  • One can milk or water (I use water most of the time)
  • One can white rice (as in I put the rice into the can and that is how I measure it)
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
Bring the soup and the water to a boil and add rice and a pinch of salt, stir, reduce heat to a simmer and cover. Allow to cook for 15-20 minutes (or however long your particular rice takes to cook). Salt and pepper to desired taste. Get back in bed and eat it curled up in a ball.

*I have to have this "sick food" in my "sick bowl" - a blue and white bowl I have had since before I could walk. It just is not the same without it.
