Hawaiian Haystacks

We have been asked to share our Hawaiian Haystacks recipe with you. These are really easy to make and everyone is happy because they can add their own toppings.
It is not much of a recipe, more of just a how to.

I actually make Hawaiian Haystacks 2 different ways.

1. My favorite way to make them is with a homemade gravy and left over chicken. I cook a whole chicken in the crock pot and we will eat that for a meal. Then the next day, I will make a gravy from the drippings and add left over bits of chicken meat to the gravy to serve over the rice.

2. When I want to make Hawaiian Haystacks,but have not cooked a whole chicken. I just put chicken tenders in the crockpot and 2 cans of cream of chicken soup. I will let this cook on low for 4-6 hours and use this to serve over the rice.

Both ways are really simple. This is a quick and easy meal that my family loves.

Basically all you do is cook the rice. Serve rice with chicken and gravy and each person can add their own toppings.

Some of our favorite toppings.

I usually just use toppings that we have around the kitchen.

Toppings can include:

shredded cheddar cheese
pineapple tidbits
sliced olives
diced green onion
chopped celery
shredded coconut
slice almonds
diced fresh mushroom
Chow mien noodles
diced tomatoes
peas
mandarin oranges
raisins
diced green pepper
corn
or anything else that you think would be good
