Yummy Chicken Vegetable Soup Recipe

I changed this up some based on the contents of my refrigerator. My chicken tenders were slightly frozen when I started, so I started on high (4 hr setting) for about an hour and half with the celery, carrots and onions. I used 8 cups of chicken stock and increased the spices accordingly. Then I added in a mixture of frozen peas and green beans (what I had) along with a drained and rinsed can of small white beans. Cooked on the 6 hr setting for about 3.5 hrs and found my chicken was very done (my fault, using thinner chicken tenders). At this point I added the zucchini as noodles (used my mandolin to slice) and set to warm. The spice mixture is very tasty and a nice change from our normal chicken soup! I served with a crusty Italian bread and everyone was happy.

Mel, this soup is delicious. My question; can it be frozen? It is only for me and I freeze most of my meals in small containers to be thawed in fridge and cooked as needed. Was thinking cream cheese would not freeze well. Thanks again for so many great recipes.

Mel, this soup is delicious My first time for trying a cream base chicken soup. Love ur chiken noodle soup too. My question; can the cream cheese chicken soup be frozen? It is only for me.

I made this meal last night. It was what I was hoping it would be, on point! Because I only had an entire chicken, I roasted the chicken on the rack with a drip pan with four cups of water below to generate the broth needed. I used only a little canola oil, salt, and pepper. I made this delicious soup with homemade biscuits and with the remaining dark me I made another meal. Thanks for this recipe!!!!!

Just made this recipe, I boiled chicken thighs with the bones and skin to make the broth, and then just pulled the meat. Also substituted egg noodles for the potatoes. A little poultry seasoning, thyme, and salt. I did have to add some more broth. My husband loves it. Wonderful recipe!

I just commented a little while ago, but need to update. I actually sent 2 bread bowls to work w/ my husband in case he wanted to share his soup (plenty for 2 people) w/ someone. I just got a text from him asking for the soup recipe for his co-worker. Score.

Just made this for dinner, and it was delicious! I cut up the raw chicken and added it with the veggies, and used garlic powder instead of the cloves. It was really good, and my kids liked it. Thanks for the recipe.

Have made this many times. Our whole family loves it. I have made almost everyone I know make it. They love it. My 4 year-old asked last week if I could make it everyday. I said maybe every week until the weather warms up. So easy and so yummy. I love soup. Thanks for this great recipe.
