CHICKEN WILD RICE SOUP
I'm originally from Minnesota, where wild rice grows in abundance and is very popular in recipes. This creamy chicken and wild rice soup has been part of our Christmas Eve menu for years. To save time, I cook the chicken and wild rice and cut up the vegetables the day before. -Virginia Montmarquet, Riverside, California

Steps:
- In alarge soup pot over medium high heat, saute the mushrooms, onions, carrots and celery with the ½ cup butter until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Add 2 tsp salt and ½ tsp pepper while veggies are sauteing.

- When flour is all added, quickly begin pouring in the chicken stock and water as you stir continuously, adding 1-2 cups at a time.

- If served immediately, the soup will be a perfect creamy consistency. If not served immediately, you made need to add a little bit of milk when you reheat it. Otherwise, it will be a really thick stew-like soup.
- Tastes great with bread or rolls.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the soup will be. Look for fresh, organic chicken, wild rice, and mushrooms.
- Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too much chicken, rice, and mushrooms to the pot, the soup will be too thick and the flavors will be muted.
- Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of white wine or lemon juice for extra flavor.
- Serve the soup with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include croutons, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped fresh herbs.
