Chicken Cordon Bleu Soup (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 7 cups diced potatoes.
02 - A medium onion, chopped.
03 - 1 large carrot, sliced up.
04 - 2 cups of diced ham.
05 - Cooked chicken, 2 cups shredded.
06 - 2 teaspoons parsley, dried.
07 - Half a teaspoon thyme (dried).
08 - Dijon mustard, 2 teaspoons.
09 - 5 cups broth (chicken).
10 - 1 cup of half-and-half.
11 - Mozzarella cheese, 2 cups shredded.
12 - A bit of black pepper.

# Instructions:

01 - Dump the first 9 ingredients in a pot. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for about 20 minutes until the potatoes are tender. Scoop out a few cups of veggies, smash them, toss them back in, add the half-and-half, and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the mozzarella at the end.
02 - Toss all 9 main ingredients into the slow cooker. Cook on LOW for 7 hours or HIGH for 3 hours. Mash a few of the softened veggies and mix them back in. Pour in the half-and-half, warm it up for 15 minutes, and mix in the cheese right before serving.

# Notes:

01 - A great way to use up leftovers.
02 - Mashing the potatoes thickens the soup naturally.
03 - Pick the cooking method that suits your day.
04 - You'll end up with 12 cups of soup.
