Rinse the wild rice thoroughly under cold water and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, breaking it into crumbles. Drain any excess grease.
Transfer the cooked ground beef to the crock pot.
In the same skillet, sauté the diced onion, celery, and carrots for 3–5 minutes, until slightly softened. Add the mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes.
Transfer the sautéed vegetables to the crock pot.
Add the rinsed wild rice, cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, and chicken broth to the crock pot.
Stir in the garlic powder, thyme, salt, and black pepper until evenly combined.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 5–6 hours, or on high heat for 3–4 hours, until the wild rice is tender.
Stir the dish before serving and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve warm, garnished with chopped parsley if desired.
