This Best Ever Slow Cooker Chicken Noodle Soup is the only chicken noodle soup recipe you’ll need to get you through the winter! It’s healthy, it’s wholesome, it’s packed with veggies and lean chicken, and it’s so easy to make in the Crock-Pot or slow cooker!! It’s the perfect soup for sick days and snow days! And during the winter season when viruses rear their ugly heads, I’ve GOT to have this Best-Ever Chicken Noodle Soup on repeat in my kitchen. I often make my chicken or vegetable stock and use that in this soup, although you can easily use your favorite low-sodium chicken stock from the grocery store and it will be just as great. And feel free to use whatever noodles you prefer in this Best Ever Slow Cooker Chicken Noodle Soup. I sometimes use macaroni, if that’s all I have on hand, and even though our favorite is rotini or fusilli, even spaghetti noodles cracked into thirds will do just fine. And a great hack to make this soup even easier – use rotisserie chicken! I keep some grilled or poached chicken breasts in my freezer to use in soups or salads, but a grocery store rotisserie chicken is a great time-saver if you need some cooked chicken quickly. Just remove the skin and cut it into bite-sized pieces! And feel free to use whatever vegetables you wish! My kids love carrots best, but I’ve also added frozen green beans and even frozen corn in a pinch. It’s really up to you! And serve with some fresh whole grain bread or crusty artisan bread for dipping and you’ve got a majorly delicious and wholesome meal that’s sure to help ease your sickness or at least keep you warm on cold winter days!
