    Chicken Tortilla Soup

    It's that time of the year that I love making soup. Whether it's my Slow Cooker Clam Chowder or Instant Pot Vegetable Beef Soup there is nothing better on a chilly fall day. The inspiration for this recipe was found over on spendwithpennies.com. I changed it up a little to make it my own.  Using precooked chicken that I happened to have made it extra quick. Rotisserie chicken would also be a great option.

    Could This Soup Be Made in The Slow Cooker ?

    Yes to make it in a slow cooker, I would put everything in the slow cooker and cook on low for 2-3 hours.

    Would Raw Chicken Work to Make this Soup?

    Sure boneless skinless breasts or thighs would work best. Cook in a frying pan or instant pot. If you put raw chicken in Crockpot extend the cooking time to 4-5 hours.

    How to Store Left Over Soup?

    Soup will keep in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 4-5 days. In the freezer for 3-4 months.
