high protein crockpot soup
A warm, filling crockpot soup loaded with protein from chicken and white beans — the kind of dinner that feels like a hug after a long day.
- Prep Time: 10min
- Cook Time: 6 hrs
- Total Time: 5 minute
Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 2 cans (15 oz each) white beans, drained and rinsed
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup diced carrots
- 1 cup diced celery
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, for stirring in at the end
- Fresh parsley, for topping
Instructions
- Add chicken, white beans, broth, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, thyme, and bay leaf to the crockpot.
- Cover and cook on low for 6 hours, or high for 3–4 hours, until the chicken is tender.
- Remove the chicken, shred it with two forks, and return it to the pot.
- Remove the bay leaf. Stir in the Greek yogurt until fully combined — this is what gives the broth its creamy texture and protein boost.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Top with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
For an even higher-protein bowl, stir in a scoop of unflavored protein powder along with the Greek yogurt, or add a side of cottage cheese on toast.
