Make With

Progresso Broth

Steps

1

In 3 to 4-quart slow cooker, layer mushrooms, rice, celery, carrots, soup mix and sugar. Pour water and broth over top.

Cover; cook on Low setting for 6 to 8 hours.
3

About 10 minutes before serving, gently stir thawed peas into soup. Cover; cook an additional 10 minutes or until peas are thoroughly heated.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

tip 1
Instead of beef broth, use 4 cups of your own favorite broth for this recipe.
tip 2
Use whole-grain wild rice for this soup; rice labeled broken or cracked loses its shape during long slow cooking.
tip 3
Homemade soup makes a great lunch to tote to school or work. Transfer leftover cooled soup to single-serving plastic freezer containers and freeze for up to 6 months. Reheat the soup in the microwave.
