Herbed Chicken & Spinach Soup image

I love this slow cooker dish because it combines some of my favorite ingredients, such as savory spices, kidney beans and fresh spinach. To create a hearty meal, I eat the chicken soup with a side of crusty bread slathered in butter.-Tanya MacDonald, Antigonish County, Nova Scotia

This soup is so versatile. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste. I like to add some chopped carrots and celery.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out watery. I think I might have added too much broth.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken. It's also a good way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out bland. I think it needed more salt and pepper.

This was a quick and easy meal to make. I used rotisserie chicken and it turned out great.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but I really enjoyed this soup. The herbs and chicken broth gave it a really rich flavor.
