    My absolute go to for winter. I double this recipe and freeze the leftovers in individual serving bowls for a quick easy lunch during the school year.

      The post and photos need an update, but this recipe itself still holds up years later. I’d forgotten about it, thanks for taking the time to rate and comment – now I need to get to work updating it so more people can find and try it!

    This soup was easy to make, but it lacked substance. To me, it just tasted like buffalo flavored water with a little chicken floating in it. I was hoping it would’ve been thicker. Once I finished the chicken, I didn’t really want the watery buffalo soup. I may try it again but alter the recipe somehow.

    This was a great recipe! If you are a lazy cook (as I am!), I thought I’d let you know that you can just add all the ingredients into one pot and heat it up and it still tastes great, the butter separates out on top, but I’d rather stir my soup while eating than do extra dishes while cooking :)

    I added 8 ounces of cream cheese, plus a half of a bag of shredded cheese. This particular recipe was too thin of a soup for me. My additions made it thick and creamy! Overall, yummy!

    This soup was quick and easy to make and it’s delicious! I even started out with uncooked chicken and it took less than 30 minutes.
    This will really hit the spot when I’m having a buffalo chicken craving, which happens a lot! Being #lchf, breaded chicken isn’t in the cards anymore but this, this I can eat anytime.
    I substituted whipping cream for the half and half (which I always do) and next time I would probably add a tad more Franks but thank you for this, it’s definitely going into my regular menu rotation.

    How spicy is it? I have a 2.5 year old. She does ok with spicy, but I don’t know if I need to reduce the Frank’s, then our family can add more to their own if desired, or if it’s not too spicy to begin with. Thanks! LOVE your recipes!

      I don’t think it’s super spicy but you can start with a little and add more to taste!

    This soup is delicious! Just a couple of tweaks-use 8 ounces of cream cheese, heavy cream rather than half & half, and a little xanthan gum to thicken it a bit. I will definitely be making it again!!
    PS-I love so many of your recipes and since going keto four months ago have revisited your blog time and again.

      Sue, how did it turn out using xanthan gum? What was the amt. you used? How did you incorporate it into the soup?

    So I just made this and it is awesome! Because I already added cream cheese to it, my concerns about fat content went right out the window! That being said, I used heavy whipping cream in place of the half and half (I forgot to buy half and half and, well, I’m too lazy to go back to the store for one item). It had a nice consistency to it without having to add anything else to help thicken it up. Love this recipe and can’t wait to make it for my friends/family who gave up carbs as well!

    This sounds really good. I’m a bit concerned with the high fat content. Have you or anyone used low-fat or fat-free cream cream? If so, how did it turn out?

    • Mellissa Sevigny says

      I’m sure it would be fine, though not as creamy.

    Taste was great, but texture was not thick enough.

    I love this soup! I use rotisserie chicken and that makes this so quick and easy to make when you come home on a weeknight starving. The taste is ace and it’s filling and warm! I don’t eat celery, so I’ve topped this with chives, blue cheese and bacon crumbs, depending on what I have on hand. Makes cooking when hungry and impatient super easy!

    I actually don’t care for meatballs at all, so I’m very happy and grateful when you post other kinds of dishes. Thank you so much, I can’t wait to try this soup!

    I made this today in under 30 minutes using a rotisserie chicken. I topped mine with some crumbles bleu cheese. It was tasty and it’ll be great for the winter. I like a thicker soup, so next time I’ll use more chicken, some xanthan gum to thicken, and maybe some chunky vegetables.

      Ever since I made this soup the first time – 2 years ago – I CRAVE it! The flavor is so addicting, and it cures me of my desire to eat anything I shouldn’t… an absolute win in my book!
