Heat a pot over medium heat. Once hot, add the oil. Sauté the celery, onion, carrot, and garlic until the celery starts to soften.
Stir in the broth, rice, and thyme. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender, about 20 to 30 minutes. Add more broth if needed. Refer to the instructions on the package for cooking time.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Portion into bowls and garnish with parsley. Serve with crackers.
