"velvet cucumber chicken soup" ... by nancy
This soup is so nice and creamy, with a mellow cucumber taste. DELISHES!! Creamy,and no milk or cream was added. Carrots chopped very small can be added for color, if you like. But does not need it for taste. This recipe is so simple and tasty, I am sure you will want to make it often. A throw it in the pot.. and go shopping for a few hours. Dinner is ready when you get home. You will never guess it started with canned soup! SHhhhhh! it is our little secret! Enjoy.. Nancy. 8/18/13

Step 4Add onions, cucumbers and black pepper to the crock-pot. needs no salt, there is plenty in the canned soup. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hrs. Or on high for 2-3 hours.
-
Step 5Add a cup of cooked chicken cut up very small, or 1 can of cooked chicken. see foto. 1/2 hour before serving soup.
-
Step 6I had home made whole wheat bread my son made. Nice and crunchy...yummy! or serve with your choice of buttered crackers.

Step 7Garnish with a couple cucumber slices, and sprinkle with parsley. A crock-pot recipe, I tweaked. And with my pictures. Also cucumbers from my garden. ** NOTE: Did you know hot soup in the summer will cool you?? When you sweat this is why. Your body will cool itself.. when you are overheated...with sweat!!.. Just saying!
