CREAMY CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM CHOWDER #dinnerrecipe #food #amazingrecipe #easyrecipe

Ideal for a crisp weeknight dinner, this smooth chicken and mushroom chowder is thick, appetizing, and stacked with a lot of chicken, mushrooms and potatoes!

Is there anything better on a virus Fall weeknight than a major consoling bowl of chowder? This dinner prepares in around 30 minutes, and warms well for remains!

This soup is one of my top picks, since it utilizes pre-cooked chicken. Normally, at whatever point chicken goes on special at my nearby market, I stock up. Since there's just so much cooler space for those huge bundles, I more often than not add the chicken to my moderate cooker with an onion, seasonings and some chicken soup and let it cook away throughout the day until it's super fork delicate.

At that point I shred everything up and divide it out into baggies. Some go in the fridge (for suppers like this one or to top a brisk plate of mixed greens for lunch), and some go in the cooler for some other time. It's an extremely conservative approach to appreciate destroyed chicken!
