Creamy Parslied Wild Rice Soup In your slow cooker
The herbs in this aromatic soup will have your house smelling soooo good! Nice and creamy, yet dairy-free, this soup is vegetarian, but it’s easy enough to throw in some chopped rotisserie chicken if you like. Enjoy with our roasted grape and brie crostini.
