Ham and Wild Rice Soup

Vote for Veggies

Vegetables offer a host of nutrients including vitamins A and folate. Be sure to get at least 3 to 5 servings of veggies daily.

Success

Cooking wild rice on the stove-top can take up to 50 minutes, so using a slow cooker is an easy alternative. To quickly thaw frozen vegetables, rinse them under cold, running water. It's best to thaw frozen veggies before adding them to a slow cooker recipe.

Purchasing

Looking for a reasonably priced slow cooker? They're easy to use and don't heat up the kitchen. Check your neighborhood garage sales or local thrift shop.

I was a little nervous at first to try this recipe. My husband and I are on a diet so we want our meals to not onlt be low in calories but taste wonderful as well. The soup cooks up perfectly just like the picture. And it tastes fantastic!! I didn't read the recipe before I decided to make it last night. The recipe says to cook it for 8-9 hours in a slow cooker. My veggies were still frozen too. But I threw it all in a pot anyway and cooked it on high until the veggies were tender and the rice was done and it turned out just fine. I loved that all I had to do was open cans and bags and this meal was so tasty! Good on a cold day! A+++++++++++
