Notes
Ground turkey or chicken are excellent alternatives for a lighter twist on this recipe.
Store any leftover soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
Standard rice does not cook up well in the slow cooker, instead we use Minute brand rice which works better in the slow cooker.
