How to Make Broccoli And Rice Soup

Cook 1 cup Great Valley Rice Medley according to package directions until just tender. Do not drain.
While rice cooks (approx. 30 minutes), prepare the vegetables.
In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat.
Add 1 medium chopped onion and 1 medium chopped carrot. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Add 2 cloves minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add 4 cups chopped broccoli florets and sauté for 5 minutes.
Pour in 6 cups vegetable or chicken stock and add the cooked rice with its cooking liquid.
Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 20 minutes, or until broccoli is tender.
Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Consider adding a pinch of nutmeg for extra warmth.
