Slow Cooker Cream of Chicken & Leek Soup

Comfort food at its finest!

I love it when the machine does all the work for me. I can go on about my day and come home to a delicious home-cooked meal. And soup as an entree is always my favorite.

Leeks are amazing, they impart so much flavor in any dish. Whenever I find them at the grocery store, I always buy them. They are versatile and have a much more aroma than an onion.

Just keep in mind that they do need a lot of washing since they are picked from the ground. Often, they carry a lot of dirt in between the layers so it’s best to chop the leek and rinse in water.

You can serve this Slow Cooker Cream of Chicken & Leek Soup with toasted crusty bread, or a nice green salad.

When life gets busy, the crockpot is an enormous help. It has saved me from coming home scrambling trying to get dinner on the table. 

See? I just throw everything in this magic machine and voila! soup is done.

In the end, I shred the chicken to bite-size pieces and throw them back in the soup. You can customize the spices and ingredients to your liking.

Recipe Notes

Notes: Leeks are notorious for collecting dirt in between the layers as they grow. They have to be washed or your dinner will be gritty.
Hold the leeks under running water and with your fingers, slightly separate the layers to allow the water to get into the layers and remove the dirt.

Adding the chicken broth: Depending on how thick/hearty you prefer your soup will depend on how much broth you add. If you prefer a brothy soup, then add more liquid. If you prefer a more hearty type soup, then add less broth to the slow cooker bowl.
