I’m sitting in the airport with just a few minutes left before we board our flight back home! I can’t wait to see my family! I planted a few seeds in our group chat with my husband and mother-in-law. This delicious crock pot creamy chicken and tomato soup is one of my mother-in-law’s favorites! After watching my tutorial, she made it for her friends and even prepared it for us when we visited last spring. I texted, “I have a crockpot if you’d like to make some of that tomato and chicken soup” in the group chat. They did go to the grocery store last night, so I’ll keep you posted if they ended up making it. I’m so ready for some home-cooked food. After traveling, dining out gets to be way too much. This is one of my favorite healthy, yet comforting recipes, and if they don’t make it, I’ll make sure to stop and grab all the ingredients to do it.

I was chatting with her before I left about this recipe, and I realized I never put it on my blog—it was only on my TikTok! Since I had a bit of time before the flight took off, I decided to hurry up and get this posted just in case you’re looking for a delicious slow cooker recipe to throw in the crock pot for dinner!
