Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup

So warm, so cozy, so soothing. A must for those busy cold weeknights, using up that leftover rotisserie chicken!

I love all chicken noodle soups. Truly, I do. I love an Instant Pot version. A crockpot version. A stovetop version. You name it.

But this one. This lighter cream soup version. Yup, this one has completely stolen my heart.

Now this is not a thick nor super heavy soup say like clam chowder. It’s a slightly thickened broth, perfectly lightened up creamy goodness.

And you get to use up that leftover rotisserie chicken! Don’t have any on hand? Any kind of shredded/diced chicken breast/thighs will work beautifully here.
