The soup came out much more stew-like for me. I think I would have added the rice a bit later, maybe an hour before being ready. The rice added at the beginning seemed to soak up a lot of broth and add to the stew-type consistency. Everyone loved the soup, but for my own preference, I think I will use fresh broccoli next time, adding it at the start. Even though the broccoli was cooked in the soup, it just seemed to have a frozen texture and taste to it. I think I may also omit the corn and instead use baby bella mushrooms. If I make it again with corn, I may add some bite-size chunks of red bell pepper.

My husband is not big on soups with veggies but I left out the corn and broccoli and stuck with carrots and celery. I also subbed brown rice in. All in all, it was a tasty soup. My husband said the carrots were tender enough (he doesn't like cooked carrots that have any crunch to them). The recipe makes a good base soup and allows you to pretty much substitute in the different ingredients that you prefer in a soup.
