A hearty slow cooker chicken pie soup, loaded with chicken and vegetables. This comforting dish is perfect for chilly months!

This weekend I did the dreaded yearly swapping of seasonal clothes. This also meant checking to see what winter stuff still fits the kids. I’m sure that sounds absolutely ridiculous if you’re currently experiencing 90+ temps. But, at least around here, if you wait too long to get new winter gear (aka snow-boots/pants/gloves etc) you’re out of luck. So, I’m trying to get a head start on things and get it out of the way while it’s on my mind.

Not to mention the fact that it’s not completely unheard of to have snow in October here. Halloween blizzard anyone? Seriously. Worst Halloween ever. At least in my opinion. I’m sure the kids loved it.

I’d like at least a full two months to enjoy my regular boots before swapping over to snow boots. I know snow is inevitable, but I’m hoping we don’t get slammed this year. Only time will tell though!

Are you excited for the pending winter or preparing to become a hermit?

I’m always excited for slow cooker and soup season. Sure, it goes hand in hand with the cooler months, but I’m okay with that as long as I get to enjoy soups like this! This chicken pie soup is the perfect way to warm up on a cold Fall or Winter day. Not only is it super easy to make, it’s insanely delicious. It’s also quite possibly one of our favorite soups to date. Which means it will absolutely be in my fall/winter recipe rotation!

A comforting and classic entree, turned into a hearty slow cooker soup, loaded with chicken and vegetables. All of the flavor you expect from chicken pot pie, but better… and easier!

Enjoy a bowl of this flavorful slow cooker chicken pie soup for dinner!
