It is so easy to make soup in a slow cooker whether it’s hot or cold outside and the end result is always so good.
This makes a deliciously creamy and rich soup and the chicken absorbs all of the spices. If you prefer, you can use boneless chicken thighs instead. It’s important to add the cream and cheeses at the end so that the milk doesn’t curdle.
