This was one of those recipes were you end up experimenting with it. It came out ok the first time I made it, but with some tweaking it was way better the second and third times.

Easy dinner with a good flavor. Could use a bit of salt and pepper.

This was very tasty! I had to add a little more wine and water as the rice didn't quite get cooked thoroughly with the current ingredients. But once the rice was cooked it was wonderful. My guests loved it!!

This side dish was wonderful. It was a nice change from the normal pasta or rice side dish. The only thing that i definitely had to add in this recipe was SALT!!! I highly recommend adding salt because without it, it was bland, and the flavors were muted, but the salt brought out the flavors of the wine, onion, mushroom and cheese!

This is a fantastic dish. Experiment with different kinds of mushrooms and wines. Jasmine rice is the best with this one.
