Soup #1: Broccoli and Wild Rice Soup

For my Bridal Shower, I was showered with soup recipes.  Now that that cooler weather finally hit, Jeremy and I decided to start the soup-er dining experience.  Here is the first soup recipe, gifted by my Aunt Mary Ellen.  It was a really fast and easy soup to make, and we give the flavor a thumbs up.  :)

Broccoli and Wild Rice Soup
Serves: ~8
Time: ~30 min

Ingredients:
1- 6 oz box chicken-flavored wild rice mix
1- 16 oz package frozen chopped broccoli
2 teaspoons dried minced onion
1- 10 oz can cream of chicken soup
1- 8 oz package cream cheese, cut into small cubes
1/2 teaspoon celery salt/seed
