Crock Pot Chicken Vegetable Soup (Nothin' Fancy, Just Yummy)

Sarah in New York's Note:

There is nothing crazy wonderful about this, it's just a good, hearty chicken and vegetable soup. I have been trying to eat more "low-carb" so this recipe isn't super creamy. You can add 1 cup of chopped potatoes and 1/2 cup cream if you don't care about carbs and I'm sure it would be even better. I just love to eat this soup and I hope you will too. It's very simple to make and just plain old good!

Delicious. I made this in my pressure cooker for 24 minutes. I used two raw chicken breasts and followed the recipe but used a half bag of frozen corn instead of canned corn. I think cream corn would be good with this too. I am on weight watchers and the recipe made 12 cups of soup/ 6 servings (2 cups per serving) and it equaled 4 points per serving. It was the first time I ever used butter in a soup recipe and it really gave the broth a good flavor . I also used fat free chicken broth. Will definitely make this again.

This soup tasted good after a few hours in the crock pot. However, I cooked it more trying to get the chicken to fall apart and then it tasted a little burnt. I will stick with the 6-8 hour time frame next time.

Tried this because I didn't have any noodles and I'm glad I did! Good with rabbit. The homemade stock still had fat so I didn't add butter. Used Better than Bouillon. Added 3 diced yukon gold potatoes.
