Servings: 6 servings
Calories: 164kcal
Ingredients
- 6 cups chicken stock
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 2 carrots peeled and diced
- 2 stalks celery diced
- 1 medium onion diced
- 1 6 oz. package Uncle Ben's Long Grain and Wild Rice
- 2 tbsp. butter
- 6 oz. cremini mushrooms thinly sliced
Instructions
- Begin by cleaning and dicing all of your veggies to a consistent size. I like to do a small dice.
- In a large soup pot, melt butter over medium heat and add in diced vegetables. Saute for 3-4 minutes until the onions are translucent. Add in sliced mushrooms, stir, and cook for an additional minute.
- Next, add in a box of Uncle Ben's Long Grain and Wild Rice including the spice packet. Stir and top with chicken stock.
- Allow the rice to cook, stirring occasionally to prevent boiling over. Let the rice cook through-- about 15-20 minutes. Then add in heavy cream and stir.
Notes
Rice soaks up a lot of liquid when it is cooking. If you would like a more liquidy soup base, you make want to add in an extra cup or two of stock at the end of cooking.
