Instructions
Preparation Steps
In a large pot, whisk together the mushroom soup and vegetable stock over medium heat until smooth and heated.
Stir in the basmati rice, cheddar cheese, and salt until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Cover the pot and remove from heat. Let it sit for 10 minutes allowing the rice to absorb the liquid.
Fluff the rice with a fork before serving to integrate any remaining liquid.
Notes
Consider adding sliced green onions or roasted bell peppers for added flavor and texture. For a vegan option, substitute cheddar cheese with a plant-based cheese alternative.
