Slow Cooker Chicken White Bean Soup

This Slow Cooker Chicken White Bean Soup recipe is such a great no-brainer – as it is done in a slow-cooker. I’ve always loved Sarah Wilson’s recipes, and highly recommend her cookbook: Slow Cooker Cookbook. This recipe is based on hers and it is soooo easy that it’s become my go-to when I need something healthy for work lunches.

GREAT for winter – this soup is healthy, tasty and the hardest part is just chopping up the ingredients! Pop a generous spoon of grated parmesan and a sprinkle of chilli flakes to warm the very cockles of your soul!!!

I’ve edited this recipe to include organic ingredients where possible. But you know, do what you can 🙂
