Chicken Pot Pie Soup Recipe

Chicken Pot Pie Soup. . . your favorite comfort food, now in soup form. A perfect weeknight dinner!

A little over a year and a half ago, we took a family trip to Disneyland during the fall. One of the evenings was a little chilly, so we stopped at The Pacific Wharf Cafe for a bowl of soup in a bread bowl. I ordered the seasonal soup, which happened to be Chicken Pot Pie Soup.

Oh my. It was so yummy that I actually came back the next day for lunch and ordered the very same thing. I never do that, so you know it was good!

I vowed that when I got home, I would have to try and replicate the recipe. Then I got sidetracked. For 16 months. Ahem. But I finally did it! I came up with a recipe for chicken pot pie soup that was just as good as I remembered it. I got lucky this time, and it only took me one try.

As soon as I tasted it, I knew it was a winner. Everyone in the family scraped their soup bowls clean. Hooray!

I even topped it off with flaky strips of pie crust that I rolled out and cut with a pizza cutter. I made my own using this pie crust recipe, but you can definitely use store bought crust. I just didn’t have any on hand. It is the perfect addition to the soup, and add a nice crunch.

Seriously, this soup is a new family favorite. I am already planning to make it again. It is absolutely scrumptious, and so hearty. Perfect for frigid winter evenings like we’ve been having here in Utah.
