Chicken Wildrice Soup

Wildrice has been a staple and a treat that I grew up on. Being in the Midwest, wild rice was used in quite a few dishes. My favorite wildrice blend to use for this recipe is

Canoe Wild Rice, White 'N Wild Rice, but you can substitute another blend if you cannot find this brand.

This soup is very filling and sticks with ya!
