Cream of Wild Rice Soup
Cream of Wild Rice Soup
Cream of Wild Rice Soup is a tradition in Minnesota. I used to make this soup from scratch, doing lots of chopping and sautéeing, measuring and stirring. When I discovered how to streamline the prep without sacrificing any flavor, this soup mix quickly became our number one seller.
Distinctively nutty wild rice paired perfectly with onions, celery, and mushrooms in a thick, rich vegetarian broth. Customers have added slivered almonds, julienned carrots, diced cooked pheasant, and splashes of sherry. Go ahead. Gild the lily!
Makes 7 - 8 cups.
Instructions: Stir package ingredients into 7 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer. Cook all day in a slow-cooker or 2 to 3 hours in a pot on your stove. Before serving, add 1/2 cup of plain half-and-half, dairy or non-dairy.
Add cubed cooked chicken or ham, if desired.
Leftovers can be frozen. Ideal for reheating at work.

“We were given a gift box of soup mixes. My husband is not fond of any type of rice, but when I fixed the Cream of Wild Rice Soup mix, he ate 3 bowls of it and wanted to know when I was going to make more. I was lucky to get a bowl of it, The soup was delicious. I made the soup in my crockpot and cooked it for 8 hours on low heat. Next I’m going to try the Northwoods Chili Mix, also in the crockpot. We are so happy to have received this gift from his daughter and told her so!”
I loved the Cream of Wild Rice Soup and am so excited to try the other soups. I have a growing family and I appreciate your business and commitment to healthy eating! My husband is a Minnesota native and I am from South Carolina. I spent five years living in Minnesota with my husband where we had our three children before we moved back to my home state where we now reside. I picked up a couple of your soups in the Love from Minnesota store on my last visit and cooked one up about a week ago. We loved it and it made me homesick for Minnesota. Thanks again for these delicious soups and a taste of home! --Rebekka N.
