Very tasty! I will definitely make this again. The only change I would make is to use way less rice. I used 9 oz instead of the 12 oz the recipe calls for and it was still very thick. The following day it was almost a casserole instead of a soup…I could have eaten it with a fork. Still tasty though. I would maybe use 4 or 5 oz of rice instead. I also used a cup of half and half instead of 2 cups of cream (added a little extra broth to make up for the liquid) and it was perfectly creamy for my taste.

I also found that the amount of flour called for in the recipe made it too thick – more like a stew than a soup! I would make it again, but use a fraction of the flour instead.

YUM!! This is sooo good. I made it this afternoon so I can reheat tonight for dinner. I couldn’t help tasting over and over. I also added so milk to thin out…maybe it was a bit too much flour. I used a roasted chicken instead of turkey.

This was really good but came out way thicker than it appears in the picture. Next time, I’m going to cut the flour back by half (I had to add a lot more cream and broth to thin it out a little) and also about half the rice. Mine had way more rice than appears in the pic. I also used chicken, and made homemade bread bowls to serve them in. Can’t wait to have some leftovers for lunch!

Yum! I made this the other night, but used chicken instead of the Turkey. It was the perfect meal for a chilly drizzly day!

Thanks!!

Aww shucks… I was just going to load up my own creamy turkey and wild rice recipe (well, actually it is a friend named Nellie’s… Nellie added bacon to hers though and I would highly suggest that if you are a bacon lover. It really adds another dimension of flavor to the soup.)
I will have to give your recipe a try though!
