1. Toss in some Rotisserie Chicken

Chicken Noodle Soup with a side of crunchy crackers is the perfect comfort meal for a chilly day. Did you know you can cut down your prep time by buying one of our pre-cooked rotisserie chickens from our deli? The result is soft, perfectly cooked chicken noodle soup, like this one from the folks at Pillsbury.

2. Use a slow cooker instead of the stovetop

Making soup with a slow cooker is the perfect way to make cooking a hot meal work for your schedule. Just pop the ingredients into the slow cooker in the morning, and when you’re done for the day you’ll have a flavor packed dish, like this Chicken Tortilla Soup from Gimme Some Oven, ready for you just when you need it most.
