     1 sm Onion; diced

     1 cl Garlic; minced
   1/4 ts (ea) salt & pepper
43 1/2 oz Chicken broth
   1/3 c  A-P flour

 Meanwhile, in a 4 or 5 qt. slow cooker, combine the

 Increase slow-cooker heat setting to high. Mix flour and
 water until smooth; whisk flour mixture into broth. Cook
 until thickened, 30-40 minutes. Stir in wine. Whisk in
 cheeses until melted. Add chicken and ham; heat through.
 Serve with croutons.
