Creole Chicken Soup image

Just put this in the slow cooker in the morning and get a whiff of heaven when you come in the door in the evening! I cook it on high heat for one hour while the family gets ready for school and work, then turn it to low before we leave for the day. This is great served with corn muffins or over rice. Lots of ingredients but, except for the okra, they are all things that most cooks have on the shelf, or in the freezer or fridge. From the folks at Rodale Press's book "Your Family Will Love It." (Mine sure does!)
