Awesome recipe! I have trouble making "good" soup, so I tried this, followed the recipe pretty exact, and got rave reviews about it.

I made this recipe and followed every single step. I didnt love it, there wasnt enough flavor for me. Its "good" but it had no WOW factor or anything that made me want to make this recipe again. Its missing a key spice that would make it taste exceptional.

This soup was fantastic. It was very thick and hearty. With some crusty bread, it makes a great meal on a cold day. I added a little salt and pepper to taste, but didn't change anything else.

This was a good recipe. I made the soup using a different process. I made my own broth with the chicken used to make this soup. Next time I make this, I plan to make the chicken more flavorful before mixing with the soup.

This is delicious! I made it pretty much according to the recipe, except that I sauteed the vegetables in olive oil before adding the chicken broth. Everybody loved it, I was counting on leftovers and had none. Definitely a keeper.

Awesome chicken wild rice soup, hubby loved it too. Made a few adjustments: sauteed onion,celery, and shredded carrots in a little evoo, added salt/pepper/dried thyme, added 2 qts of fat free/low sodium chix broth,2 pks. of low sodium chix bouillon, the parsley and garlic powder. I then added 3 chicken breasts cut into bite size and cooked them in the broth mixture, added 1/2c. white wine. Once the chicken was cooked I added 1c. fat free half and half, I thickened the soup with cornstarch and water instead of using the butter roux, I also eliminated the can of mushroom soup. When the soup was thick and creamy, I added a box of cooked wild rice(Uncle Bens). What a delicious soup.....very satisfying. I loved the look of the shredded carrots in the soup, and the chicken was very tender. Will be in my soup rotation for this winter! Thanks.

Make this soup today! It is simply the best soup I have had in a long, long time. I made it as per the directions...the only changes I made was: I was out of garlic powder, so I started to use 1/4 tsp garlic salt in place, but then thought that that would not give it quite enough garlic taste, so I added 1/4 tsp minced garlic as well. And I used a whole bullion cube as I did not have the granulated type. Also 1 6oz box of Uncle Ben's Wild Rice will give you amount of rice needed for this recipe. The only changes I will make next time is maybe use more chicken and I will probably cook my chicken first and then cut/tear into smaller pieces (as opposed to cutting and then cooking)....I know this probably will sound crazy, but we prefer the stringier pieces of chicken in soups...just a personal preference.

This soup is absolutely delicious. I have made it four times now, three times exactly as stated, and once with leftover Christmas turkey instead of chicken. My husband and three children (all under the age of eight) love this soup, too. It is so good that I have added it to my menu for all major holidays. I wouldn't change a thing.

I hate to say this because of all the great reviews... I was not bad it just was not the kind of wild rice soup I was expecting... it was very thin. Good taste but I really wanted a creamy soup.

This soup is WONDERFUL! I didn't measure anything, just threw it all in and it was delicious. I used leftover chicken from a whole chicken I baked a couple of days earlier (made the stock out of the bones) and I cooked the rice two days prior also. My husband who doesn't really like a lot of chicken and certainly isn't all that fond of soup said he would give it 4 stars - that is amazing! I used lots and lots of mushrooms. I will be making this again and again, thanks!

Yum!! reminds me of home... I used crimini mushrooms, but they overpowered the delicate flavor of wild rice. Also, if you are in a rush, Trader Joe's has precooked wild rice and chicken cubes.

Although I love fresh mushrooms, our four year old doesn't so I omitted them. Otherwise, I followed the recipe pretty closely. I did saute the onion & celery in butter. So I added a little less butter in the final step. I also used a white & wild rice mixture (plain, not the kind with seasonings).This is comfort food at its best, very mild and pleasing. Plan to serve it tomorrow for company (so I haven't added the rice to the entire batch yet.

This soup is delicious!! I cooked the chicken and rice (half wild half white rice) beforehand then combined all ingredients and simmered on the stove for 2-3 hours. I'm terrible at making soups so i was pleased this came out so good. I added extra of everything which resulted in a large batch, im happy my husband and I can enjoy this soup for a few days. Oh, i also added some bay leaves and savory spice
