How to Make Army Rice

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot over medium-high heat, brown 1 lb Italian sausage (removed from casings), 1 large onion (chopped), 1 green bell pepper (chopped), and 2 stalks celery (chopped).
  3. Once the sausage is browned, stir in 2 cups long-grain rice and 1/2 cup slivered almonds.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 (10.75 ounce) cans condensed cream of mushroom soup and 2 cups boiling water until smooth.
  5. Pour the soup mixture into the Dutch oven, stirring to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
  6. Cover the Dutch oven and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
  7. Uncover and bake for an additional 50 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and the top is lightly browned.
  8. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Serves 8-10.
