Chicken and Wild Rice Soup image

From Better Homes and Gardens: "A favorite of Northern kitchens, this hearty wild rice soup is easy to prepare. The tender wild rice cooks in a vegetable blend of carrots, celery, leeks, and thyme while you prepare the creamy base flavored with the rich and sweet taste of dry sherry. Garnish with slices of tender carrots and serve with freshly baked whole wheat bread."

This soup was delicious and easy to make. I used brown rice instead of wild rice and it turned out great. I also added some chopped carrots and celery for extra flavor.
