"Got this off the national supermarket Woolworths site though it seems to be an American recipe. Time is based on cooking on low if on high you are looking at a total of 6 hours. Posted for You want What!? A Recipe Posting Game 2016."

Wonderful soup! I did make some changes based on what I had on hand. Instead of the celery I added a good sized sprinkling of celery seed, used a small can of tomatoes instead of fresh, and a good sprinkling of dried dill weed instead of fresh. Even with my substitutions this soup is a winner! Next time I will try to have all the correct ingredients on hand! Thanks for sharing!

Very nice soup, I used 1 tsp garlic powder cause I ran out of fresh garlic, when I make it again I will brown ground chicken or turkey first then add to the slowcooker instead of the whole raw chicken breast, I found it to be a little dry with all those hours of cooking time, the flavor was fantastic, we loved it! Thank you ImPat!
