Ingredients

  • 1 pound bulk pork sausage
  • 1 package (8 ounces) sliced mushrooms
  • 2 stalks celery, coarsely chopped (about 1 cup)
  • 1 large red bell pepper, coarsely chopped (about 1 cup)
  • 1 large onion, coarsely chopped (about 1 cup)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves, crushed
  • 1 box (6 ounces) seasoned long-grain and wild rice mix
  • 1 3/4 cups Swanson® Chicken Broth or Chicken Stock
  • 1 can (10.5 ounces) Campbell’s® Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup(Regular or 98% Fat Free)
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (about 4 ounces)

Instructions

  • Tips

    • Easy Substitution: For an extra-special touch, substitute 1 package (8 ounces) baby portobello mushrooms, sliced, for the sliced mushrooms.
    • Make It Spicy: Swap in Swanson® Spicy Chicken Broth in place of our non-spicy version to bring the heat to this recipe.
  • Step 1

    Cook the sausage in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until well browned, stirring often to separate meat. Pour off any fat.

  • Step 2

    Add the mushrooms, celery, pepper, onion, thyme, marjoram and the seasoning packet from the rice blend to the skillet and cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  • Step 3

    Stir the sausage mixture, broth, soup, rice blend and 1/2 cup cheese in a 3-quart shallow baking dish. Cover the baking dish.

  • Step 4

    Bake at 375°F. for 1 hour or until the sausage is cooked through and the rice is tender. Stir the sausage mixture before serving. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
