Olive Oil, As Needed
1 pound Bulk Sausage (we Like Spicy!)
1 whole Medium Carrot, Diced
2 stalks Celery, Diced
1/2 whole Medium Onion, Diced
2 cloves Garlic, Minced
1/2 teaspoons Dried Oregano
1/2 teaspoons Dried Rosemary
1/2 teaspoons Salt, Plus More As Needed
1/2 cups Wild Rice
4 cups Chicken Or Vegetable Stock
2 cups Water
1/2 cups Heavy Cream
2 Tablespoons Cornstarch

1
Preheat a large soup pot to medium-high with a drizzle of olive oil. Add sausage and cook until crumbly and brown, breaking it up with a spoon as you go.
2
Add carrot, celery, onion, and garlic to the sausage. Stir to combine and cook veggies for about 5 minutes. Add oregano, rosemary, salt, wild rice, stock, and water to the pot. Stir everything together and cover. Reduce heat to low and let soup simmer for about 1 hour, checking it every 20 minutes, until rice is cooked through and tender. Each time you stir the soup, taste the broth and add a few pinches of salt as needed.
3
When rice is tender, whisk cream with cornstarch to create a slurry. Pour mixture into the soup and increase heat to medium-high. Let soup bubble uncovered for a few minutes to thicken slightly.
4
Serve with something green on top, if you'd like. Enjoy!
