Healthy Slow Cooker Chicken and Wild Rice Soup
"This is a hearty, healthy and easy to prepare delicious soup that I have made several times, and every time we have it we love how it fills our bellies and tastes so yummy! I make my own broth to cut the fat and salt even further in this recipe. A tip about shredding the chicken - Use a hand mixer right in the crockpot for this task. Found on Racelschultz.com website."
