Crockpot Chicken Cordon Bleu Soup

Jul 29

My friend Amber shared this recipe on her YouTube channel (Feeding the Byrds) a while back and I’ve been meaning to give it a try. I’m so glad we made it because we absolutely loved it!

This makes about 8 servings.

Notes: Serve with crackers crumbled in it and use a rotisserie chicken to save time!

Ingredients

2-3 cups shredded, cooked chicken
2 cups diced ham
2 carrots, sliced
2-3 red potatoes, cubed
2 stalks celery, diced
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
5 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 cups half and half
4-5 slices swiss cheese
1 tsp dried parsley
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1-2 bay leaves
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
2 Tbsp corn starch
salt and pepper to taste

Here’s how to make it

Add all veggies, seasonings, bay leaves, dijon mustard, ham and chicken broth to 6 qt slow cooker and cook on high for 3-4 hours.
Once the veggies are tender at the end of that time, add in chicken and half and half.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with some of the warm liquid from the crockpot. Pour back into the slow cooker to help thicken.
Cook on high for another hour.
At the end of that hour, remove bay leaves and add Swiss cheese and allow to melt. Add salt and pepper if desired.
Serve with garlic toast or crackers!
