Creamy Chicken and Rice Soup image

This soup was inspired by my co-workers love for the Panera's Cream of Chicken and Rice soup - I made my take of it and she loved it so here it is for all of you! A little healthier in that it doesn't have any heavy cream.

This soup is the perfect way to use up leftover chicken. It's also a great make-ahead meal. I often make a big batch on the weekend and then eat it throughout the week.
