How to make Wild Rice & Broccoli Soup

Cook the Tilda Giant Wild Rice grains according to packet instructions. Butter is optional but can be added to the water to help separate the rice grains.
In a pot, sweat an onion in butter and garlic paste on a medium to high heat.
Next add the broccoli and spinach. Stir until the spinach begins to wilt.
Then add the milk, vegetable stock, salt and pepper.
Stir in the giant wild rice grains, leaving some rice behind for garnishing.
Cover and cook for 5-10 mins until the broccoli softens.
Using a blender, blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Serve and garnish with rice grains and parsley.
