loved this soup and it quickly disappeared. This is great comfort food on a wintery day.
If you don't want this soup too thick, you can add additional chicken broth until you achieve the thickness you desire. I put all the ingredients together in my crockpot the night before
and just kept the pot in my refrigerator until morning. This made it quick and easy to put it in the crockpot and turn it on before leaving for work. I love having our dinner meal already in the works
so I can come home and enjoy!!!

I changed this recipe by adding a little more potatoes, the bacon, cheese, celery and carrots.
It made a nice big hearty batch of soup. This provided soup for 8 to 10 people and I think a few
of them had seconds. There was one bowl left for lunch the next day. I love leftover soup!
Hi Cindy, what size cream of chicken soup?
