Chicken pot pie soup

  First off, WINTER is here!!!!! Yay!  Time to break out the sweaters, slippers and warm soup! I would like to say that I thought that this was crazy to.  Never before had I even considered the thought that you could turn this magnificent dish (Chicken Pot Pie) into.....into....something glorious!  My father (who gives his opinions liberally) told me specifically that this got his 5 star approval.  To make this even better, it's a crock pot meal!  Prep time is about 30 mins, cook time is 5 1/2 to 6 hrs.


 Ingredients:

  2 Lbs boneless, skinless, chicken breast
  2 1/2 cups of frozen mixed vegetables
  3 cups of raw potato's ( I did maybe 4 to 4 1/2 cups)
  3 cans of Cream of chicken soup
  1 onion
  1 Tbsp. minced garlic
  Salt, Pepper, Red pepper flakes and any additional seasonings you might like :)

  
  Pretty simple right?!  What you want to do first is cube the chicken and put that in the crock pot.  I like to put the things with the most flavor on top of the chicken so it can absorb all of that goodness.  That would be the seasonings of choice, onion, garlic.   Now put in the mixed veggies, potato's, and the Cream of chicken soup.  Mix well and set crock pot to high.  When getting towards the last couple of hours you will need to stir to detour the burning on the bottom and the sides. This will take about 5 1/2 to 6 hours to fully cook.....my family was pretty impatient for their food so we cut the time a little short. 

  I hope you enjoy and God Bless!
