Here in Central PA it is COLD and SNOWY! So, what better dinner than to have a nice warm bowl of soup?! Better yet, how about a recipe that you can just throw in the crock pot in the morning and have ready for when you get home from work?! I found a Chicken Rice recipe online and make a couple of tweaks to it. It was delicious! My girls really enjoyed it as well!
