Description
A family favorite for every night of the week. The first Rice-A-Roni product was created in 1958 when Vince, inspired by an Armenian style rice pilaf, placed rice and pasta in a box with a dry seasoning mix. Originally named for its combination of half rice and half pasta, Rice-A-Roni quickly became a staple in American families’ meals. Today, Our Rice-A-Roni products combine rice, pasta and the perfect mix of seasonings to create delicious, family pleasing side dishes and main dish recipes.

I have been using this product for years, especially the chicken flavor. The last couple of boxes I have made have had little brown bugs in them. I don't see them until I add the water, gross. What a waste of money and used to be such a great side dish. I won't be buying anymore.

Great Side Dish !!

Quick and easy to make . Reasonably priced. Mild seasoned chicken flavour that pairs nicely with just about anything main entrée. I personally prefer the “ Beef “ flavour because it’s a little bit stronger flavour profile, but this one is great for those “ chicken “ fans out there. Add chunks of precooked frozen chicken meat ( available in most all supermarkets frozen food aisle ) to make it a main course ! I add ground cracked black pepper to boast the flavour. I also add dried parsley and chives for colour. I can highly recommend this product !
Delicious!

After I was able to finally find the chicken flavor of Rice-a-Roni, I was very disappointed in the flavor and color. It tastes bland and looks bland also. I gave it a 2nd try, but with the same results. I will be returning to the store-brand version from now on.

My family absolutely loves this as a side dish. It is so tasty and so easy to make. The only other ingredients you need in addition to what’s included in this box, is 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, and 2 1/2 cups of water. It is so easy to make this into a meal, simply by adding chicken breast or broccoli to it. Granted, this isn’t the healthiest of side dishes, but it is a scrumptious one. FYI, this contains soy and wheat ingredients if you were trying to avoid them.
Too much water?

Is it just me or is 2.5 cups of water way too much. We love this product but don't have it often. I never had an end result that was so mushy/watery.
Not like it used to be

I used to make this all the time about 5 years ago. I recently purchased again. I made it exactly as I had so many times before with cubed chicken and broccoli. It doesn't look the same, smell the same, feel the same and most definitely does not taste the same. it's super bland now. Why did it change? I was so disappointed because I used to love making this one pan dish. You should be ashamed for drastically changing a product that's recipe has went untouched for literally decades. My mom used to make it when I was a kid and it tasted the same for me as an adult....until now. :(
Why change the formula?!?

Rice a Roni has been a staple in my house for years. Just got a box of our family favorite, Chicken and Broccoli and it was yuck! The recipe changed. The rice is different. It’s mushy and gross. The seasoning is way off. Why change a perfect thing?
A nice accompaniment to many meals ...

I have found that the low-end of the cook time yields much better, less dry, results. I have also found that the pan size affects the outcome. Overall, the flavor is great as a stand-alone side dish or as an addition to other main-meal ingredients. I recommend it.

We ate chicken rice a roni alot when I was growing up so thought I would give it a try. Very disappointing to say the least. The rice and noodles were kind of mushy and there was not enough flavor. Definitely not what I remembered loving as a kid in the 80's! Will have to recreate it homemade.

I bought this rice and when I began to cook it, I noticed bugs floating!!!! Never again. Spend a couple dollars more and buy Uncle Ben’s or Knorr.

I like Rice a Roni but they need to put more powder in the package for better seasoning of the product!! Just not enough seasoning for my taste!!
