This is adapated from the Byerly's Cookbook.

6 Tbsp. butter
2 Tbsp. onion, minced
1/2 C. flour
3 C. chicken broth
2 C. cooked wild rice
1/2 C. ham, finely diced
1/2 C. grated carrots
3 Tbsp. chopped sliced almonds
1/2 C. half and half
Chopped fresh parsley

Saute onion in butter until tender. Blend in flour, gradually add broth. Cook until mixture comes to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil one minute. Stir in rice, ham, carrots, almonds and salt to taste. Simmer five minutes. Blend in half and half, heat to serving temperature. Garnish with chopped parsley.

This freezes well. I recommend making a double batch, then freeze before the half and half is added.
