Let’s Get Cooking!

Mix it up: In a slow cooker, combine the cooked chicken, chicken broth, diced tomatoes (don’t drain!), heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, spinach, Italian seasoning, a couple of pinches of salt and pepper. Stir it up so everything is nicely blended together.
Set it and forget it: Once combined, cover and cook on low for about 6-8 hours or if you’re in a rush, on high for 3-4 hours. It should smell absolutely amazing by the time it’s done!

Comfort Food

Loaded with tons of flavor, this is the quintessential comfort food that you will want to cozy up with on chilly evenings. The creamy texture and savory ingredients will surely warm you right up!

Customizable

Use whatever ingredients you have. Not a fan of chicken? Substitute turkey or a plant-based protein. Don’t have spinach? Try kale for a different texture. The options are endless!

Make-Ahead Friendly

This soup is perfect for meal prep! Make a big batch at the beginning of the week, and you’ll have lunches sorted for days, a real lifesaver when you’re juggling work and family.

Budget-Friendly

Using simple, affordable ingredients means you can whip this up without breaking the bank. Plus, it’s an excellent way to utilize pantry staples.

Serving Suggestions

What to Serve With This

This soup is delicious on its own, but I love pairing it with a crusty piece of garlic bread or a side salad for a well-rounded meal. If you want to elevate it further, a sprinkle of fresh basil or a drizzle of balsamic glaze on top works wonders!

Storage

Leftover soup will keep in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days. I can almost guarantee it will taste even better the next day, after all those flavors meld together!

Reheating Instructions

To reheat, simply warm it on the stovetop over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through. You can also pop it in the microwave, just cover it so it doesn’t splatter!

Freezer Friendly?

Absolutely! You can freeze this soup for up to 3 months in an airtight container. When you’re ready to enjoy, thaw it overnight in the fridge and then reheat.

And there you have it! An Easy Crockpot Chicken Parmesan Soup that makes dinner a breeze and leaves everyone asking for seconds.
