The only things better than healthy dinner ideas are easy healthy dinner ideas. This set-and-forget slow cooker soup recipe is just that. It simmers all day long so you come home to a warm healthy dinner that the whole family will love. Using bone-in chicken thighs is the key to making a rich soup without adding broth. And if you need healthy meals on a budget thighs are cheaper than breasts and dried chickpeas are a relatively cheap and versatile pantry item that’s always good to stock up on.

The EatingWell Test Kitchen is a group of culinary professionals who develop and test our recipes. Our recipes go through a rigorous process that includes testing by trained recipe testers using various equipment (e.g. gas and electric stoves) and a variety of tools and techniques to ensure that it actually works when you make it at home. Testers shop at major grocery stores to research ingredient availability. Finally a registered dietitian reviews each recipe to ensure that we deliver food that is not only delicious but also meets our nutritional guidelines.
