Rated 5 out of 5 by lbgalloway from This dish was wonderful. This dish was wonderful. I decided to make this a main dish, and added 2 cups of cooked, diced chicken. It was wonderful, and very filling as the main course. The only change is that it needed a good bit of salt in the end to add flavor. I might add more cream cheese next time for extra creaminess.

This wasn't my favorite dish, although i like all the ingredients separately, together it just didn't mesh well with the cream cheese. I agree with the statement that the cream cheese overpowered the dish, and i especially didn't like the lemon flavor in it.

My family loves peas, mushrooms and rice, so I thought this would be a hit, but it came in well below expectations. We were dissapointed and didn't eat more than a few bites before I decided to just toss it out.
