Hi guys!! It’s Lauren back from Lauren’s Recipe Box and I am so excited to share with you all one of my all time favorite soup recipes. My husband gave this creamy chicken & wild rice soup a huge thumbs up after he told me that it is even better than the Panera Bread version (which we love)! That always makes a heart happy 🙂

We have eaten this for dinner twice this week and I ate it for lunch three times so I think it is safe to say it is a keeper! I am a huge believer in simple and delicious recipes that can be made under 30 minutes and this soup is just that. I used a few shortcuts for this soup to help make it under 30 minutes for those busy weeknights: One, rotisserie chicken! Two, boxed rice mix!

A good organic version works well, but the flavor of homemade broth is so concentrated, it’s hard to compare. [Read more…]
