Creamy Broccoli and Wild Rice Soup Servings: 6 (1-cup)-cooktocook
Ingredients:
1 package (10 oz.) frozen broccoli in cheese-flavored sauce
1 (10 oz.) package long grain white and wild rice in a pouch
2 Tbsp. butter or oleo
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/4 pound cubed smoked ham
1/2 tsp. dried thyme leaves
1/2 tsp. dried marjoram
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8th tsp. pepper
3 cups half-and-half
Paprika
Directions:
1--Cook broccoli and rice according to package directions: set aside.
2--Meanwhile, melt butter in large saucepan over medium-high heat.
3--Add onion, celery,and almonds; cook and stir until vegetables are tender and almonds are slightly browned.
4--Stir in broccoli in cheese sauce, rice, ham, thyme, marjoram, salt, and pepper; mix well.
5--Stir in half-and-half. Cook until thoroughly heated--do not boil.
6--Ladle soup into bowls; sprinkle with paprika.
Notes:
A substitution for marjoram is oregano; not very cheesy, so add a very small piece of cheddar while warming on stove top; forgot to sprinkle on paprika.
Rice came in a 8.8oz pouch: I bought two, but only used the one pouch which was plenty.
