It’s also a perfect soup to use up leftover rotisserie chicken or leftover turkey and ham from Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner! I’m a sucker for a hearty, cozy soup on a chilly night. Plus it’s so easy to prepare and uses pantry staples. Some of my other favorites are my Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie Soup, Instant Pot Lasagna Soup, and Jalapeno Corn Chowder. Creamy Wild Rice Soup starts with the comforts of wild rice and and mirepoix (carrots, onions and celery, but also includes:
Baby Bella Mushrooms Garlic. Mmm all the garlic! Poultry seasoning (or you can use fresh sage, rosemary and thyme) Baby Yukon Gold Potatoes Vegetable Broth Creamy béchamel sauce (it’s simple to make, I promise!)
It has minimal, whole food ingredients but is BIG on flavor. Talk about pure comfort in a bowl but also nutritious at the same time! You’ll need equal parts butter and flour: I am using 6 Tbsp. flour and 6 Tbsp. butter and 2 cups of warm milk. That’s it!
