Let’s Make Chicken Wild Rice Soup In The Crockpot

Because we love a good crockpot, throw-it-in-and-leave situation, this one comes together super easily with a little finishing touch at the end for creamy dreaminess. Look at that! It cooked all day while you went about your business and now you’re ready to ladle out bowl after heaping bowl of this glorious soup. Sit down at the table or, even better, curl up on the couch with a warm blanket and let this soup cozy you right up.

What To Serve with This Soup

It seems like no soup experience is complete without some big hunks of warm crusty bread like maybe this easy peasy no-knead bread to dip. And sure, spoons are helpful with soup but also…how great is it to just scoop it with bread?! If you are looking to add a little green to the meal, this Simple Green Salad or this Brussels and Kale Caesar Salad come together quickly and beautifully. Or maybe you want to sheet pan up some roasty vegetables to go on the side? But really, if you’ve heard nothing we said here, bread. That is, after all, the Minnesota way. And also, BREAD IS GREAT. If there is a chill in the air, grab your ingredients, toss them in that crockpot and then smile all day knowing you get to come home to big tastes with this warm, cozy, delicious little friend.
