Here is how you make Hearty Chicken and Wild Rice Soup:

Cook chicken breasts in pan with cooking spray till cooked through. Remove from pan and cut into bite-sized pieces. (I used frozen pre-cooked chicken breasts so all I had to do was heat and cut.)Meanwhile, cut up onion, celery, mushrooms, and carrots and cook in soup pot sprayed with cooking spray over medium high heat till onions become translucent. Add chopped chicken and remaining ingredients to pot.Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for at least 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. (If you can let it simmer an hour or more, the flavor is even better.)Number of Servings: 10Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user ALISSEMARIE.
