Delicious stuff! I used uncooked rice: added 1,5 litres of chicken broth to the pot after sauteeing the celery, onion and garlic and simmered for 10 minutes, and then proceeded with the recipe. We divided this into 5 generous servings. Very good: will be added to the lunch rotation! Thank you Boomette!

Made this for dinner last night...put it in the crock pot and cooked it on low all day. The house smelt wonderful as it simmered away. Besides cooking in the crock pot, I made one other change. I added a can of pinto beans to the mix as well. My oldest DD said she would not be eating dinner because she is not a fan of black beans however; she came to the table after I had dished up everyones soup saying "It smells good...I guess I will have a bowl". She enjoyed 2 full bowls of this soup. We topped the soup off with a dollop of sour cream. Boomette, thanks for another keeper. I will definitely be making this again and soon. Made and reviewed for the 48th AUS/NZ Reciep Swap.
