Notes

  • If you prefer brown rice or wild rice, leave the parboiled rice out of the slow cooker when adding the other ingredients.
  • While the soup is cooking in the slow cooker, prepare 1 cup uncooked brown or wild rice according to package directions. Once cooked, this will yield approximately 3 cups of rice.
  • Stir the cooked rice into the soup just before serving.
