Wild Rice & Fish Soup image

Found this recipe in a magazine & it has been a favorite of mine for a few years now. My kids can't get enough of it. I did substitute the veggie broth for chicken because I like the flavor better. I also double the recipe because I like leftovers.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover fish. I had some salmon that I needed to use up and this soup was the perfect solution. It's also a great way to sneak some vegetables into your diet.
