This is from a Betty Crocker e-mail I received. Normally I don't like anything made with heavy cream soups & frozen goods, but this is really convenient to throw together. We also like more salt & seasonings so we always adjust every recipe to our own tastes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Always opt for fresh vegetables, herbs, and chicken for the best flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the slow cooker: Ensure there's enough space for the ingredients to cook evenly. A crowded slow cooker will result in uneven cooking and soggy vegetables.
  • Cook on low and slow: The key to tender chicken and flavorful broth is low and slow cooking. Resist the temptation to cook on high, as this can result in dry chicken and overcooked vegetables.
  • Season well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of herbs and spices to the soup. This will enhance the flavor and make the soup more enjoyable.
  • Add the gnocchi towards the end of cooking: Gnocchi cooks quickly, so adding it too early can result in mushy gnocchi. Add it during the last 15-20 minutes of cooking for the perfect texture.

Conclusion:

This slow cooker chicken gnocchi soup is a delicious and easy meal that's perfect for busy weeknights.
