Ingredients

  • 1
    lb. small whole mushrooms, halved
  • 1/2
    cup uncooked whole-grain wild rice (not cracked or broken)
  • 1
    medium stalk celery, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2
    medium carrots, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1
    envelope onion mushroom soup mix (from 1.8-oz. pkg.)
  • 1
    tablespoon sugar
  • 1
    cup water
  • 1
    (32-oz.) container Progresso™ beef broth
  • 1
    cup frozen sweet peas, thawed

Steps

  • 1
    In 3 to 4-quart slow cooker, layer mushrooms, rice, celery, carrots, soup mix and sugar. Pour water and broth over top.
  • 2
    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.

  • Instead of beef broth, use 4 cups of your own favorite broth for this recipe.
  • Use whole-grain wild rice for this soup; rice labeled broken or cracked loses its shape during long slow cooking.
  • 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.
