In this world of constant rushing it is always nice to have an easy dinner at hand. This recipe will, once made, save you time, energy, and money from fast food. Not to mention provide you with a healthy alternative to those "frozen dinner."Wait! What am I saying! It is perfectly fine to cook soup in your slow cooker and freeze it for when you really need that "frozen dinner"I love this soup.

You are all done.*Before going into the nutrition facts I just want to say one thing about the chicken. If you are watching your fat or calorie intake feel free to use all white meat...but the flavor of the dark meat really adds to this soup and it does not really add all that much fat or calories. Besides, you do need some (healthy) fats in your diet anyway!Nutrition Facts: Aprx. 24 servings in this recipe1 serving: 1 cup of soupCalories: 180 calFat: 5.3g ?
