    This time of year, there are a lot of sicknesses going around. Whenever my kids get so much as a sniffle, I whip up a batch of chicken soup. Yes it is good for the soul, but it is also good for when you are feeling like something is coming on. While some studies suggest that classic chicken soup can help with cold symptoms, a piping hot bowl of soup just helps me feel warm and cozy. But let's face it, chicken soup can be laborious to prepare. But this Crock Pot Chicken Soup is a lot easier thanks to a super market shortcut and my friend, the crock pot.

    This Easy Crock Pot Chicken Soup is so comforting, especially when you are under the weather. The soup is easy to make thanks to the slow cooker and a supermarket shortcut. #recipe #crockpot #slowcooker #chickensoup

    How to make Crockpot Chicken Soup

    It's so easy to make chicken soup from scratch when you use this shortcut. The super market shortcut I used to make this crock pot soup was a rotisserie chicken I picked up at the store. Simply, skin and shred the whole chicken and add it to your crock pot. You can shred the chicken with two forks or use a meat shredder.

    In addition to the shredded chicken, you will add 3 types of beans, diced tomatoes, chicken broth, carrots, celery, mushrooms, onion, garlic and spices. Feel free to personalize this recipe to fit your family. If they are not fans of mushrooms, you can omit them or simply use less.

    I find the beans really make this soup hearty and flavorful. Once you have added all your ingredients to the crock pot, cover it with the lid and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 6-8 hours.

    Once the soup is ready, top the soup with sliced green onion.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    How do I add noodles or pasta to this chicken soup?

    You can add 8oz of noodles to this soup. Simply boil the noodles in a separate pot until al dente. Then drain, and add to crock pot when there are 5 minutes left of cooking time. Stir to combine. One of my favorite noodles to add are wide egg noodles.

    Store this soup for up to 4 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

    What do I serve with this soup?

    Chicken soup always goes great with a slice of garlic bread. You can also serve this with a sandwich or salad.

      Its like you learn my mind! You seem to know so much about this, such as you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you just can do with a few percent to force the message house a bit, however other than that, this is wonderful blog. A great read. I'll definitely be back.
