Bringing It All Together

Making It Your Own (Swaps & Ideas)

Feel free to swap out chicken for turkey or add in veggies like spinach or zucchini. If you like it extra cheesy, add more Parmesan cheese. You can also use half-and-half instead of heavy cream for a lighter version.

How We Love to Serve It

We love to serve this soup with warm crusty bread or a side salad. It’s perfect for dunking! You can also top it with extra cheese or fresh herbs for added flavor.

A Few Tips For Success

Make sure to shred the chicken well before mixing in the cream and cheese to ensure a smooth texture. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Saving Some For Later

This soup freezes beautifully! Allow it to cool completely, then ladle it into freezer-safe containers. It can be frozen for up to three months. When ready to eat, thaw it in the fridge overnight and reheat gently on the stove.
