Freezer Meal Wild Rice Soup

cloves garlic, minced

cup uncooked wild rice (the REAL stuff, not a blend)

vegetable or chicken broth

teaspoon salt

teaspoon poultry seasoning (or spices like sage, thyme, and rosemary)

lb. chicken breasts (optional)

tablespoons butter

cup flour

cups whole milk

INSTANT POT: 

From frozen, 30 minutes on high pressure + 10 minutes natural release.

SLOW COOKER: 

FINAL STEP

 Melt butter, whisk in flour, whisk in milk until creamy and thick. Add to the soup. Add extra water to thin to desired consistency.

my experience is that the rice or pasta aborbs liguid during freezing ant thawing and turns out mushy.
i cook my rice very aldente and then freeze. Or freeze cooked rice separately.
So basically i have a very thick soup and add rice and broth after thawing. Delicious.

Tip:  freeze it in a shape that will actually fit in your instant pot!!!  Otherwise you need an axe to cut it into pieces 😉

This is soooo delicious. I added 3/4 cup of dry white wine since the rice needed a little more liquid and it was one of the best soups I’ve ever had!

We made this recipe in preparation for the birth of our baby boy in January. It was so easy to assemble and we both loved it! We've made it a few times since then. I'm trying to minimize dairy, so we used unflavored almond milk and it turned out great. Thank you for helping us eat well during the chaotic newborn phase ;)

I wanted this to work (as I could use some good freezer-to-Instant Pot meals); however, my family said, "Please don't make this again."  They loved your Freezer/Instant Pot Beef Stew, however.

I’m wondering if this could be made with a cream base instead of a roux.  Like half and half instead or milk or cream?

I made exactly as described except I didn’t add the broth until I put everything in the instant pot. It came out perfect- May add a little extra garlic next time but otherwise very happy with our easy weeknight dinner!

Amazing flavor. Easy to make and freeze. I didn't use all the thickened milk mixture, but maybe 80% of it. Hubby raved about it. I had frozen chicken thighs that I put in whole when I packaged it and after it cooked, I cut them up and tossed them back in before adding the milk mixture. Picture.
