Yumm!!! I'm eating a big bowl right now..and it's really rich and creamy! I've gone vegan, which can be a challenge when you love cream, butter and cheese! I've found though(from this site) that you can use silken tofu in place of cream...just put it in the food processor with a little soy milk and voila`!! The other changes I made were to use soy protien in place of the chicken, I added broccoli, red pepper and used brown rice instead of white.

I added two extra boullion cubes to the cream base (w/ the extra cup milk), as well as some parsley. I substituted the water for four cups of chicken broth, and left out the onion. All in all, it turned out very well. :)

This is a wonderful recipe. Basic ingredients combined to create a delicious blend of flavors. Even my two year old wanted a second helping.

I should have read all of the reviews before I made this. I used white rice, and I think it would be better to use wild rice. It was very bland and was too thick from all the starch. I agree with others in the fact that this is a good base recipe - but the recipe as written is not worth the effort.

This was pretty good but next time I would make some changes. I wouldn't use as much onion or celery.

This is a great base recipe. Taking the suggestions of others and tasting the soup myself, I added some herbs to add more flavor--thyme, oregano, and sage. I also used 2 cans of fat free evaporated milk instead of the regular milk to make it extra creamy without the fat. And, I cut the amount of butter in half. I will defintely make this again.

This soup was delicious! I made it according to the recipe and let it simmer for a couple hours. A nice touch was serving it in a sourdough "bread bowl". I will make it again!

Great base to a "soup nazi" recipe. I added 1 tsp rosemary, 1/2 tsp poultry seasoning and 1 tsp minced garlic. I sauteed the onion, celery, garlic and herbs before adding the water and rice. I also covered the rice mixture while it simmered and shredded the chicken.

I thought that this soup was very tasty. I used garlic chicken broth and 1 boullion cube and topped it with a freshly ground pepper mix. My husband and 14 month old daughter loved it. Will certainly make this many more times.

This recipe is a keeper for me. But I did make a few changes to it. I cooked the chicken and then used the stock left over from the chicken, and used it instead of water. Also I added 5 Tbs. of chicken soup base instead of using bouillon cubes. also I added extra chicken stock to make it not being so thick. My husband and I really liked it.

This was a little bland for us but good base to start with. I added a little food seasoning which included onion and garlic. I cubed the chicken and next time I will shred it. All in all, it was good. Thanks.

Delicious, rich soup. I used Uncle Ben's white rice/wild rice/roast chicken seasoning in place of the white rice alone. I added oxo powder which amounted to about 4/5 bouillon cubes, and sadly it was too much, my fault. Regardless this soup was very good, will make again.

This was a good soup. Perfect for a cold rainy day in Washington state, along with some butternut squash and whole wheat rolls fresh from the oven. I added pultry seasoning, garlic, and a bit of chili powder for more flavor. I will make it again, the only thing I didn't like was how much rice it had, I will cut down on that. It was very thick, so I added some water at the end of the cooking time, this also helped it not be quite so rich.

There is nothing to say except YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY!! The only thing I did different was delete the celery (my husband hates it) and shred the chicken instead of cube it. It got rave reviews from all around and it was just as good the next day!!

I have been using this recipe for quite a while now whenever we need a hearty thick soup. My family loves this. I add more chicken and plenty of onions and extra bouillon when serving to guests but prefer less seasoning myself. LOVE IT!!

This recipe is a great start to a base cream soup, but it lacks Flavor. I added more bouillon cubes, rosemary & white pepper & carrots. I would cut Way Down on the butter. It was more like butter soup before I added the above. I really liked the thickness of this soup. Very hearty.

I thought this was extremely bland. There's only so much you can do with 'pepper to taste', so I added some poultry seasoning. That still didn't do it, though improved it. In the end I added a bit of salt to my bowl and that seemed to add just one extra kick it still needed. Considering the blandness I don't see where all that butter added flavor, but a lot of fat, so if I had it to do over, I think I'd also cut the butter back and add some more bouillon. Only reason I didn't rate it lower is cause it's a good basis, but definitely needs some work, and I happen to like how thick it was. Update: Made this again later, adding 3 t. poultry seasoning, a hair of salt, cut the butter in half & added another bouillon cube. This made a pretty good cream soup.

I loved this soup after I made a few changes. I added Uncle Ben's Brown and Wild Rice instead of white rice. I also added a bit of marjoram and rosemary. I also added chopped carrot. Although it was a bit thick for a soup, it was just how I like it. Will make again.
