Crock Pot Mushroom Wild Rice Chicken Soup
I love making crockpot recipes often for several reasons. Prep is usually easy, then it finishes cooking in the crockpot. Plus it gives me more time for other things. If you are busy you need to start cooking with them!
Stock the Crock Cookbook
I have been working my way through several recipes from this cookbook, (We did get the book for free to review.) Stock the Crock by Phyllis Good, Creator of the bestselling Fix-It and Forget-It series
My daughter, Sammie spotted two recipes she wanted me to try. Phyllis’s mushroom risotto, and her slow cooker Chicken and Wild Rice Soup recipe.
Chicken and Wild Rice Soup is on page 37 of Stock the Crock. Let me say, that this recipe was a big hit, creamy, and so delicious.
Crockpot Mushroom Wild Rice Chicken Soup
We adapted it slightly. Here’s how to make it. First: Pre-spray your crockpot or slow cooker, with Pam.
Then you slice up your mushrooms, chop the onions, and green onions, and mince your garlic. Put into the crockpot, and pour in your chicken stock. Add a pinch of salt and ground pepper. Stir it, together.
Buy pre-cut chicken, or cut up your chicken breasts (The original recipe calls for chicken thighs, which might be even more flavorful but, we prefer leaner, boneless skinless breasts. Overall, I don’t think it affected the taste.)
Add the lid, and cook for 4-1/2 hours.
When the chicken is cooked, add wild rice. (If needed, take out your chicken to cut it up or debone, and return to crockpot /slow cooker.)
Cooking the wild rice will take about 45 minutes. Make a flour-water mixture to thicken the soup. Add cream and butter.
Stir, and serve. Optional, add garnish with more mushrooms, and green onions. This is seriously, so easy!

My Thoughts About The Cookbook
What I’ve loved about Stock the Crock Cookbook (crockpot/slow cooker recipes)
- The recipes are easy to follow.
- The cookbook has beautiful photos.
- The cookbook contains everyday recipes.
- Covers a nice variety of recipes, sides, and treats. (210 pages)
- It covers slow cooker fundamentals.
- Recipes are broken down in index by icons for gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, paleo-friendly, cooking for one or two, and cooking for picky eaters
The first recipe I tried from the book was a whole chicken dinner in the slow cooker. I served it when my second youngest daughter and her family were down here during the fires in Northern CA. Everyone enjoyed it.
But, this creamy mushroom soup is my favorite recipe so far.
