This simple soup recipe is one of my favorites. We just got home from Orlando and they are calling for lots of rain and even some snow this week. I'm missing the warm weather that we had on vacation.

I will be enjoying this Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken and Rice Soup all cuddled up and counting down the days until summer.

How to make Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken and Rice Soup:

This recipe is so simple to make. You just want to add everything to your slow cooker except for your flour and milk.

That will come in later once your soup is about done. Cover and let it cook. Or until chicken is cooked through and veggies are tender.

Ladle out of warm broth and place in a small mixing bowl. Add flour and whisk together. Slowly add in half & half and mix until well combined and smooth.

Add this back into your soup, mix, and allow to cook for an addition 30 minutes. Once it's done serve warm and enjoy!

Half and Half Substitutes:

If you don't have half and half you could try milk mixed with heavy cream.

For a lighter soup, you can use milk in the place of half and half but it will not have the same richness that the half and half does.

How to Freeze this Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken and Rice Soup:

Cook soup according to directions
Allow soup to cool
Ladle soup into a freezer bag.
Lay flat in the freezer to freeze.
Freeze for up to 3 months.

How to freeze longer than 3 months:

If you want to freeze this soup longer then 3 months then skip adding the half and half and flour. When you are reheating start at step 2. Not putting milk into this recipe when freezing will allow it to freeze for up to 6 months.

How to reheat frozen soup:

Place your frozen soup in the refrigerator 24 hours before serving to thaw out. Place soup into the slow cooker or on the stove top to reheat. Cook until warm throughout.
