Easy crockpot chicken wild rice soup is the ultimate comfort food! The best part is you can put it in the crockpot in the morning and have a delicious hot soup on the table for dinner.
This is one of my favorite crockpot soup recipes. Crockpot chicken wild rice soup is the ultimate comfort food on a cold night.You literally dump everything in, set the crockpot and when you get home you have a delicious soup waiting for you! I love to make this and freeze it in plastic soup containers and keep a stash in the freezer for a fast weeknight dinner.
Soups are one of my favorite easy dinner ideas. If you are looking for more soup recipes check out Italian Wedding Soup or 3 Ingredient Cheese Tortellini Soup.
Can I make this soup in the Instant Pot:
You can definitely make this soup in the instant pot. Just follow the directions but leave out the milk and corn starch.
Place in the instant pot on manual high pressure for 30 minutes. Manually release the pressure and shred the chicken with two forks. Turn the pot on saute mode and add the cornstarch and water and bring to a simmer for 5 minutes. Serve!
