Congee (Rice Soup-Chinese Style)

Ingredients:

2 cups brown rice,
1 carton of 32 oz chicken broth,
40 oz of water,
1 cup oat meal,
1lb ground turkey (optional)
Chopped cabbage or cole slaw mix (optional)


Place brown rice, chicken broth, water and oatmeal into crock pot and cook overnight.

You may add chopped cabbage/slaw to cook overnight if you like veggies in your rice soup.
(Sometimes I add cooked spinach to it after soup is ready...just a matter of preference)

Add ground turkey in the morning for added protein if you want, stir frequent for turkey to disseminate throught out the soup.

Add salt if needed.

This rice soup will come out pretty thick. It works well for young children because it sticks to the spoon which makes it easier for them to handle. If you prefer thinner soup, use more water.
