Chunky Chicken Soup

I am a stay-at-home mom who relies on my slow cooker for fast, nutritious meals with minimal cleanup and prep time. I knew this recipe was a hit when I didn't have any leftovers and my husband asked me to make it again. —Nancy Clow, Mallorytown, Ontario

REVIEWS;

Excellent recipe and liked by all in the family. Instead of cream of potato soup I used one can of cream of celery and one of cream of

chicken as suggested by another review. I will make this again very soon.

I used one can each of cream of chicken soup and cream of celery...I just don't care for canned cream of potato. Plus, I went
wild with herbs...basil, thyme, rosemary . (not so much dill)...and I used two cups of frozen mixed vegetables, because that's what I had in the freezer. This is a good soup for a cold night when you don't want to slave over a hot stove...

Very good and easy to make!! My kids love it as well.

Very easy to make! I used frozen pre-cooked diced chicken to make the preparation even quicker.

4 1/2 teaspoons melted butter plus 1 cup milk or 1 cup evaporated milk may be substituted for half & half.
