On a cold snowy night, a thick hearty soup is good for the soul.  Here is a recipe my sister, Cathy, shared with me.  It is really easy.  You basically throw everything in the slow cooker in the morning and 4 - 6 hours later it is done.  I love one pot meals. 

Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken & Spinach Tomato Soup

Ingredients:

3 Large boneless chicken breasts

1 small onion, chopped

2 cups spinach, chopped

1 14 oz can coconut milk

1 cup chicken broth

1 14 oz can diced tomatoes

1 8 oz can tomato sauce

2 TB Italian seasoning

1 TB dried basil

1/2 tsp sea salt (to taste)

fresh ground pepper (to taste)

Directions:

Mix coconut milk, chicken broth, tomato sauce & diced tomatoes with seasonings in your crock pot.  Add chicken, onion & spinach, cover and cook on high 4-6 hrs until chicken shreds easily with a fork. 

Shred chicken and return to slow cooker until ready to serve.
