Made this last night and LOVED it. Thought I would share:

2 Packages of Uncle Ben's Chicken Wild Rice (Country Inn)
2 - 4oz Chicken Breasts (already cooked)
1 Can of Cream of Chicken (Reduced Sodium) Consensed Soup
1 Can of Cream of Mushroom (Reduced Sodium) Consensed Soup
4 cups of Fat Free, Less Sodium Chicken Broth
16 Oz of Fresh mushrooms (sliced)
1 Cup of Celeray (diced)
1 Medium Onion (chopped)

In a large pan, saute the Onion, mushrooms and celery, until the mushrooms have released their juices (about 4-5 minutes). Add the 4 cups of chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add all of the rice from the two packages of Uncle Ben's Chicken and Wild Rice (but only add 1 of the seasoning packets that come with the box). Bring this to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer for 10 mintues.

While this is simmering, dice up those pre-cooked chicken breast. After the 10 mintues, add the chicken meat, and the two cans of condensed soup. Cook on low until everything is heated.

I made this into 6 pretty big servings and the stats came out as follows for each serving:

Cals:303
Carbs: 53
Fat: 4
Protein: 16
Chol: 24
Sodium: 1567

A little high on the sodium, but if you would make this with home made broth, I am certain that this number would go down considerably. (I just didn't have any left in the freezer)
