Hi...
This soup is just so yummy! You will have to give this recipe a try!
The recipe called for 1 package Near East Long Grain & Wild Rice Mix, but I couldn't find it...other Near East packages, but not that one, so I used Uncle Ben's Long Grain & Wild Rice mix and it was just fine.
Enjoy!

(Panera Bread “copycat” recipe)
4 c. Low-Sodium Chicken Broth

1 pkg. Near East Long Grain & Wild Rice with Flavor Packet
2 Stalks Celery, thinly sliced
1/4 c. Red Onion, thinly sliced
1/2 c. Carrots, thinly sliced

2 tbsp. All Purpose Flour
3/4 c. Heavy Cream
1/4 c. 2% Milk
Kosher Salt, to taste
1/4 tsp. Fresh Ground Pepper
1 c. Cooked Chicken
In a large saucepan, drizzle olive oil on the bottom and add your carrots, celery, onion, marjoram and seasoned flavor packet and saute for 5 minutes. Add the rice and stir; then add the flour. Add the chicken broth and water, bring to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes. While this is simmering, heat the heavy cream and milk in a small saucepan until hot. Add to the soup mixture along with the cooked chicken and simmer for another 30 minutes or until the rice is cooked through. Season with salt and pepper. Makes 8 cups.
