- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 sprig rosemary

Instructions
- In a 4-quart slow cooker, combine all ingredients: diced onion, carrots, celery, portobello mushrooms, uncooked wild rice, vegetable broth, bay leaf, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Stir well.
- Cover and cook on low heat for 6 hours, allowing flavors to meld and the wild rice to soften.

- Serve warm in bowls, savoring the tender wild rice, hearty mushrooms, and aromatic herbs.
Helpful Tips
- Quicker option: saute the vegetables in a pot, add remaining ingredients, and simmer on the stovetop for 45 to 60 minutes until the rice is tender.
- White or brown rice works if wild rice isn't available.
