Ingredients
  

  • 4 large leeks
  • 5 cups water
  • 1 vegetarian chicken bouillon cube
  • 1 tablespoon dill
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 -3 teaspoon salt, to taste

  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 cup instant brown rice

Instructions
 

  • cut off most of the green ends of the leeks and slice in half lengthwise, leaving the root end intact to keep them all together. chop into 1/2 inch slices and toss in a strainer, wash well to break up and get rid of sand/dirt.
  • chop celery and mushrooms, mince garlic, and combine with leeks, water, broth cube, and spices in a stock pot.
  • bring to a boil and simmer for about 10-15 min or until leeks and celery are soft. in the mean time dice up the "chicken".
