Crock-Pot Chicken Gnocchi Soup (Olive Garden Copycat)

Summer is over and school has started here. With school starting, the cooler weather will slowly start to come about.  Today we are having some rain and nice cool breezes. Makes me think about soup!.

Since school has started, this put me back to work. I try and take my lunch with me daily and a container of soup and some crackers is a quick and easy fix in the morning (or if you are like me you get your lunch ready the night before and just worry about the kids lunches in the morning).

I have never tried cooking with  potato gnocchi before and decided to give this soup a try after I had a bowl of an amazing Chicken Gnocchi soup at The Olive Garden. I knew immediately that I had to try and recreate that recipe at home in my Crock-Pot!

I used home canned chicken chunks and chicken stock I made myself too. But you could easily use left over chicken, rotisserie chicken or even canned chicken too. And of course store bought chicken stock works just great too. I raise my own chickens and do as much home canning as I possibly can so that is what I used for this recipe.

I liked the flavor of the soup and the ease of making the recipe itself. This recipe is one I am going to make again and again for sure!
