Easy Chicken Pot Pie Soup
“Easy, creamy homemade chicken pot pie soup recipe full of chicken and veggies with scratch-made, buttery pie crust bites.”
“Rain rain go away. I just got my hair done today. Little Monique wants to play. So come again some other day” That’s how the nursery rhyme should go!!
As much as I LOVE LOVE LOVE cuddly, rainy days…I’m kinda like..over it. So listen up hurricane Jayquan or whatever your name is, it’s time to wrap this lil tantrum up and move along mm-kay! It’s been raining for over a week now and mama needs some fresh, warm sunshine in my life ASAP!! Geeeeez Louise! Ok… rant over. I feel better.
What’s the point of complaining anyway right? Today I decided to make the best of the rain by cooking up a pot of this easy, comforting chicken pot pie soup. Rainy days and homemade soup just goes hand in hand! And not too many things exudes comfort like some piping hot, homemade chicken pot pie! Combine the two and you have comfort overload!
This soup is EVERYTHING! If you love chicken pot pie or even if you don’t (I’m not a huge fan myself), you’ll love this creamy, flavorful chicken pot pie soup. And those buttery, flaky crust bites! Mercy! I went through two bowls while I cuddled up on the couch and watched reruns of Golden Girls. Somehow the rain just made this even better!
This pot of soup didn’t make it past lunchtime, even Isaac, who doesn’t like mixed vegetable or potatoes, ate it. Ethan just picked out all the chicken and dipped his pie crust bites. Can’t win them all!
I made up an extra batch to place in the freezer because I know we’ll want more within the next few chilly weeks ahead. Be sure to season the soup really well or else it will taste….blah! The spices really perk up all the flavors! I used parsley, basil, black pepper, salt, celery salt, onion powder, and garlic powder.

Diva–I make chicken pot pie at least once a month for my family but never thought of it as a meal that could be a soup. I do like your recipe quite a lot but I add a par boiled russet potato and use my own stock which is m ade the day before from the bone in chicken breasts—I use onion, celery , carrot , a bay leaf and parsley plus one smashed garlic clove. I do think a small addition of say, one half teasp. of thyme, would bring be great in the mix. Still , I do love your recipes and anxious to try it like you make it. Happy Cooking!
Yummy!
I’m so making this one of these days. I’ve never made a homemade soup but I wanna try to make this. I even bought little heart cookie cutters to make the pie crust bites.
I made this for dinner tonight and it came out sooooo good! The only thing I did different was used 3 large russet potatoes, diced in cubes. The biscuits didn’t come out right for me though. They were doughy in the middle even after 25 minutes of cooking. Something I did wrong though probably! Love you recipes and I always check back for new ones 🙂
