  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 celery stalk, diced
  • 1/2 cup carrots, shredded

  • 3 oz. fresh baby spinach, tightly packed (about 3 cups)

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken in your slow cooker.
  2. Top it with diced onion, minced garlic, diced celery, and shredded carrots.
  3. Season your ingredients with dried basil, Italian seasoning, ground nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
  4. Pour the chicken broth over everything.
  5. Set your slow cooker to high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 hours.
  6. Remove the chicken, shred or chop it, and discard the bay leaf.
  7. Add the chicken back into the slow cooker and pour in the heavy cream.

Notes

For firmer gnocchi, cook separately and add just before serving. Add more broth or cream if soup thickens too much after refrigeration.
