I’m a sucker for soup. I love to make soups and I love to eat them. Some of my favorite soups include potato soup, chicken noodle, crab bisque, clam chowder, Panera Bread’s Lemon Orzo Chicken, Avgo Lemono and chicken & wild rice soup. Soups pair well with salads, freshly baked bread, and grilled cheese sandwiches.
The soup recipe that I will be sharing with you today is a variation of another chicken and wild rice soup that I previously shared. This version is a simple recipe that utilizes a crockpot. It’s great for those busy days when you have to work all day, are busy with the kids or have other activities to attend to. Please enjoy this recipe.
Ingredients
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 4 cups of chicken broth
- 1 cup of Lundberg Wild Blend Rice
- 1 can of sliced carrots (I usually use fresh but all I had on hand were canned carrots.)
- 1/2 cup of diced celery
- 1 tsp of dried oregano
- 1 tsp of dried rosemary
- 1 tsp of dried thyme
- 1/2 cup of white wine (I used Pino Grigio)
- 1 cup of water
- Salt to taste (add after cooking)
For the cream base (made after the soup cooks in the slow cooker)
- 2 tbsp of butter
- 2 tbsp of cornstarch
- 1 cup of milk
- 1/2 cup of heavy cream
Directions
1. Place the first 10 ingredients into the crockpot. Cook on low for 7-8 hours.
2. When the soup is done cooking, turn the heat to low. It should look similar to this.

Julie Ann, We are such soup lovers here at StoneGable! This soup looks just scrumptious!
I would like to make this next week and put in ON THE MENU MONDAY… could I feature your soup and use one of your soup pictures, with a link back to this post.
Since it is a slow cooker recipe it won't make my kitchen hot!

Thanks so much, Britni! I try to get a post in every day. I had a few days off last week so I was able to get a few projects done. I'm always cooking something so I'll always have recipes to post!

You're welcome! I love utilizing my crockpot during the week. It makes it so much easier to get dinner together after getting home from work. I will be posting more crockpot recipes in the future.
