Ingredients
  • 1lb fat free ground chicken, weighed raw
  • 3 cups frozen hash browns *I linked to the ones I use in my opening write up
  • 1.5 cups chopped carrots
  • 1.5 cups diced onion
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • Salt & pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp basil
  • 6 slices cooked and crumbled center cut bacon
  • 1 cup reduced fat shredded cheese (any kind will do)
  • 2 Tbsp light butter *I use Gay Lea, check your local grocery store they usually carry a brand
  • 3 Tbsp flour
  • 2 cups milk *I used skim
Instructions
  1. Cook your ground chicken in a pan on the stove and drain. Add chicken, hash browns, carrots, onions, chicken broth, salt & pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and basil to the crock pot, stir well and cook on high for 3 hours, or low 6 hours.
  2. About 15 minutes before the cooking time is up you can make your roux that you will add to the soup *you can also cook your bacon at this time if you have not already.
  3. In a pan over med-low heat on the stove melt your butter, add flour and stir..slowly whisk in milk. Stir continuously for about 5-10 minutes until sauce thickens. Once sauce is a creamy texture add to your crock pot. Then stir in cheese and crumbled cooked bacon.
  4. Let cook another 20 minutes to melt all the cheese.
  5. Soup makes 12- 1 cup servings
  6. *Feel free to add in some celery, I choose not to as I am not a fan, if you do then maybe add a little extra broth.. Soup will freeze well, store in the fridge for a few days.
