This time of the year is the perfect time to try new soups. A few weekends ago, I hosted a small gathering of friends for a soup night…this group of friends have been in my “pod” since the pandemic started.

4. Return shredded chicken to the Crock-Pot and stir.

5. Add cheddar cheese into the soup and stir. Cook until melted.

TIP: If there are some clumps of cream cheese in the soup, use a whisk when shredding the chicken to get all of the cream cheese incorporated.
