recipesbynani.comThere is nothing quite like a big bowl of creamy soup to make your house feel like home. This recipe is a favorite in my kitchen because it uses smart shortcuts to get those rich flavors on the table in record time, making it a dream for busy weeknights.
My secret to keeping this simple is using a high quality rotisserie chicken and a pre cooked wild rice blend. Just stir everything together, let it simmer, and you have a hearty meal that everyone will ask for again and again.

💡 Tips
This soup tastes even better the next day after the flavors have had time to settle in the fridge. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container for up to three days. You might need to add a splash of extra broth when reheating because the rice will soak up a bit of liquid while it sits.
