PENZEY'S CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP

Penzey's Chicken Tortilla Soup image

This is from the Penzey's catalog. Great for a hot day because it's made all in the slow cooker, or for a cold winter day. I'm sure you could add other veggies, like shredded carrot or cabbage or sweet potatoes, for added nutrition. I used leftover shredded chicken. The catalog says to serve with cornbread and garnishes (probably cheese and sour cream etc). Even my kids liked it!

This is my go-to soup recipe. It's so easy to make and always a hit with my family and friends. I love that I can use leftover chicken or rotisserie chicken to make it. It's the perfect soup for a cold day!

I made this soup last night and it turned out great! I used a rotisserie chicken to save time and it worked perfectly. The soup was flavorful and hearty. I will definitely be making this again.
