Chicken and Wild Rice Soup

I had to share this recipe,
it is soooooo yummy!!
At our Primary workers appreciation dinner one of my counselors and really good friend made this soup.
Everyone LOVED it!
From start to finish it took me 4o minutes to make, so it really didn't take as long as I thought it would. Well worth the effort.
You have got to try this one :-)
