Preparation Method

1. In slow cooker add chicken breast, water, chicken base, onion, celery, carrots, and potatoes, diced tomatoes with their juices, garlic, parsley, 2 teaspoons salt and pepper.
2. Cook on high for 6 hours, remove chicken breast and shred, place back in the soup and bake another 2 hours.
3. At the end of 8 hours, use a potato masher, mash the soup around a few times, letting some of the potatoes get a little smashed.
4. I don’t try too hard on this, I just mash 2-3 times and call it good. Add noodles to the slow cooker and season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
5. Serve with the ¼ cup of sharp cheese on top, we like Asiago and parmesan both.
6. We actually like to serve the serve the soup with the noodles on the side, letting each person add the number of noodles they want.

Enjoy it!!
