Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Crockpot Gnocchi Soup
  1. Begin by finely chopping the garlic, onion, celery, and carrots. Set these aside in a bowl for easy access. Rinse and prepare your spinach.
  2. In your crockpot, combine the chopped vegetables with the shredded chicken. Pour in the chicken broth, ensuring it covers the ingredients. Sprinkle in the Italian herbs, salt, and pepper.
  3. Set your crockpot to low heat and let it cook for 6-8 hours.
  4. Once the cooking time is complete, take two forks and shred the chicken directly within the broth.
  5. Gently stir in the soft potato gnocchi and set your crockpot to cook on low for an additional 10 minutes.
  6. At the end of the cooking cycle, pour in the heavy cream or half-and-half. Stir well to combine.
  7. Finally, just before serving, add the freshly prepared spinach to the soup and stir gently until wilted.
