Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 1 cup chopped carrots
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 cup wild rice, rinsed
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • Optional: 1/4 cup heavy cream or coconut milk for a richer soup

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.

  6. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Notes

  • For a heartier, more substantial meal, you can add cooked shredded chicken or white beans.
  • This cozy autumn wild rice soup is even better the next day as the flavors meld together.
  • Ensure your wild rice is well-rinsed to remove any grit.
  • Adjust herbs to your preference for your autumn wild rice dish.
