Hi Kait! I’m so sorry for the frustration! Was the rice cooked all the way? I’m not sure what could have gone wrong unless the rice needed to cook longer.

I followed this recipe to a T and it came out insanely watery and sloppy. How is everyone making this? What could have went wrong?

Yessss! I love adding Fritos to almost anything! Thank you so much for taking time to leave a comment!

Hey Morgan! I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe! For freezing and reheating, I would make it as written in the instructions except I wouldn’t add the cheese. Put it in a disposable foil casserole dish and let it cool completely. Then wrap it in plastic wrap followed by foil and then stick it in the freezer. Give that to your friend with a bag of grated cheese. Write on the top of the casserole “Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes then top with the cheese and bake for 5 minutes more”. Oooh, make sure she removes the plastic wrap first too! I hope this helps! And thank you so much for the feedback!

Hey Diane! You’ve made my day! Thank you so much!

Hi Jamie! I haven’t ever tried this recipe in a slow cooker, but it should work! I would go through step 4 in the recipe doing everything in a skillet on the stove top. Then add everything to the slow cooker and cook in high for 1.5-2.5 hours or until the rice has absorbed the broth and is tender.
