Cream of Wild Rice Soup
"My sister fixed this for my and husband and I and we loved it. The recipe came from Voyageur's wild rice. What I like about this soup is that it doesn't have alot of spices in it where you can't taste the vegetables and ham. I put the vegetables in my food processor which saves alot of time. This recipe makes alot of soup. I cut the recipe in half when I make it. This is an easy and delicious soup for on a cold winters day. A nice loaf of bread and you've got a great lunch!"

This is the ONLY Cream of Wild Rice Soup recipe for our family! Only changes that we make: we substitute chicken for the ham and add one (1) can cream of chicken or mushroom soup. It adds to the density of the soup.
