Notes

  • What to do with leftovers
  • Once completely cooled, store the leftover soup in an airtight container in the fridge. Enjoy leftovers for up to 4 days.
  • Substitutions/Additions
  • You can just as easily use leftover chicken or rotisserie chicken for this recipe.
  • Olive oil can be used instead of butter.
  • Swap the wild rice with brown rice or white rice. Remember they all have different cooking times, so add the rice in as you see fit. You can also cook it separately and add it in at the end.
  • Cooking times
  • Please note that the times are rough estimates; actual time may vary slightly based on specific conditions and personal cooking speed.
