Start by cooking rice according to packaged instructions. For my Hawaiian Haystacks, I always use instant brown rice (it only takes 10 minutes to cook).

While the rice is cooking, get started on the gravy. In a saucepan, combine one can of cream of chicken soup with 3/4 cup of milk. Stir gravy regularly until desired consistency. If you like your gravy thinner, add more milk. Salt and pepper gravy to the taste.

After your gravy is complete, it’s time to chop up all of your yummy fruits and veggies! My family LOVES putting the following items on their Hawaiian Haystacks: olives, carrots, tomatoes, lomein noodles, pineapple, celery.

After rice is done cooking, layer it with gravy, desired toppings, and shredded cheese. To say the least, this Easy Hawaiian Haystacks recipe is sure to become an instant family favorite!
