comment icon 200 more comments It’s fun on both fronts: the creamy chicken pot pie soup made in the slow cooker (with heart puff pastries! adorable!) AND this new thing we did this month and it’s called the Reader Recipe, which is exactly like it sounds: recipes from readers! This month our winning submission was from Clancy! It’s creamy, savory, and totally WINTER COMFORT FOOD which was exactly what we asked for from our submissions.
How To Make Our Chicken Pot Pie Soup:
She recommended a Chicken Pot Pie Soup recipe to us, and while I was excited about the creamy chicken, the veggies, the herbs and potatoes and all that, the thing that really got me excited was, hate to say it, but the HEART SHAPED PUFFS on top! These are the very important life things that win me over. Making Clancy’s recipe in our studio kitchen was so much fun. In preparation: Getting giddy about the hearts: Coming together: First tastes: Adorable team lunch moment: This recipe is solid winter slow cooker material! Thank you Clancy for your submission and thank you to everyone else who submitted a February recipe! (Honorable mention to Andréanne – I made your dad’s banana bread the exact same night you submitted the recipe because it sounded so good! And it did not disappoint.) If you want to submit something for our March Reader Recipe, check for instructions at the end of the post! Hey friend. Do YOU have a great recipe that you think we should try? TELL US ABOUT IT. 4.3 from 48 reviews For best results, warm the cream before you add it to the crockpot. This helps the cornstarch activate and thicken the soup more quickly. Clancy’s original recipe didn’t call for cornstarch, and you could definitely make it without. But I added it because I wanted it to be super thick and creamy like pot pie gravy filling!
