Ingredients

    4 cups chicken broth
    2 cups water
    2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    1 package of Rice-a-Roni long grain and wild rice
    1 tsp salt (plus more to taste)
    1/2 tsp pepper
    1/2 cup all purpose flour
    1/4 cup Smart Balance
    1 cup nonfat evaporated milk
    1 cup 1% milk
    1 cup grated or diced carrots
    1 cup diced celery

Directions

Combine broth, water, carrots, celery, chicken and rice (along with seasoning packet) in a large slow cooker. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4 hours. Take out chicken and shred with two forks and then add back into slow cooker. In a small bowl combine salt, pepper, and flour. In medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Stir in flour mixture by tablespoon to form a roux. Whisk in cream, a little at a time, until fully incorporated and smooth. Stir cream mixture into slow cooker and then let cook on low for 15 more minutes.
