Creamy Wild Rice + Mushroom Soup

The Plant-Based Meal Prep series is HERE and this is the recipe we are starting with. This is a great recipe to make at the beginning of your week because it makes a whole lot and reheats so well! It gets thicker as it sits as the wild rice absorbs a lot of liquid so keep that in mind. I recommend having at least one bowl right away and then putting the rest in some containers for later. Wild rice is not a staple in my pantry but after developing this recipe, I believe it should be! So many micronutrients and fiber in wild rice.
