Slowcooker Gluten-free Italian Wedding Soup #Recipe

We'd love it if you shared it!

Italian Wedding Soup is one of the soups that my hubby enjoys the most. I modified it a little in order to make it gluten-free. Where many people typically use tiny pasta I used rice. I love slowcooked soups, so decided to go that route. I used the Ninja 3-in-1 Cooking System to make this. You could make it in a typical slowcooker but it would take a bit longer.

Slowcooker Gluten-free Italian Wedding Soup

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground chicken breast
• 6 ounces fresh baby spinach
• 2 cups baby carrots
• 1 small onion
• 1/2 cup potato flakes
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• 4 chicken boullion cubes
• 5 cups water
• 1/2 cup uncooked instant rice

Instructions

Cut the carrots and onions and place into the Ninja.

In a large bowl, combine the chicken, potato flakes, Italian seasoning, onion powder and garlic powder and mix well.

Form small meatballs, using either a melon baller, soup spoon, ice cream scoop or your hands.

Place the meatballs into the Ninja.

Pour the chicken broth into the Ninja. (I make the broth in a mug using the Keurig, then stir and pour in.)

Cook on slowcooker high for 1 hour 45 minutes.

Add the spinach and the rice and cook on high for 15 minutes.

Serve immediately.
