Categories     Stocks

Time 30m

Yield 2-3 quarts, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 -3 cups chopped cooked turkey
2 (3 7/8 ounce) boxes Chicken & Herb Classico Rice-A-Roni, savory whole grain blend
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can chicken broth
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of chicken soup, condensed
1 -1 1/2 cup frozen corn (any variety)
1 cup milk, depending on consistency you like
1 -2 teaspoon dried parsley

Steps:

  • In a large stock pot.
  • Prepare Rice a Roni as instructed on the box (add water as called for, I add a tiny bit of olive oil, not the entire amount that it calls for, you can do either).
  • Once the water has started to boil, and rice is half cooked, I add the rest of my ingredients except the milk and parsley.
  • Let everything come to a low boil and turn on low to simmer for 10-15 minutes or until the rice is completely cooked.
  • The rice will continue to absorb your liquids as it cooks, so right before I'm ready to serve I stir in enough milk to make it the consistency I like for soup (I prefer a thick soup!) and stir in the parsley for some color.
  • Great with warm rolls or crackers!
