On a recent ski trip I had the pleasure of warming up with some delicious soup. I loved the blend of vegetables and chicken – sort of a twist on traditional vegetable soup with a chicken base. As soon as I returned home I recreated this easy and delicious soup in my slow cooker. Enjoy this Slow Cooker Harvest Chicken Soup!
- Prepare a Bouquet Garni – take the bay leaf, sprig of thyme and peppercorns and tie in a piece of cheesecloth. (You can also use a tea bag if you don’t have cheesecloth.)
- Prepare remaining ingredients and place in a 5-6 Quart slow cooker.
- Add the Bouquet Garni to the soup.
- Cover & Cook on LOW for 6 Hours or HIGH for 4 Hours
- Remove bouquet garni before serving and enjoy!Note: If you prefer, you can add the mushrooms with one hour left to cook. I like mine very soft, so I add at the beginning of the recipe.
Happy Crocking!
