Creamy Crack Chicken Soup

Made a new soup for dinner tonight. You know those nights when you don't know what to make and you check out Pinterest for some ideas? That was me tonight. I came across this recipe and I had all the ingredients so I decided to give it a go.
I am so glad I did! I will definitely be adding this to my soup repertoire. Delicious!
