Crock-Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup with Kale

Chicken Tortilla Soup has never easier OR HEALTHIER! Throw everything in your crock-pot and you’ve got dinner ready before you know it! 

I LOVE SOUP AND SOUP LOVES ME. I actually didn’t realize this until last year. I was never much of a soup girl growing up. It wasn’t until I started hangin’ out with The Healthy Maven (who really need to change her blog name to The Soupy Maven) that I realized how much I loved soup. I think I had a few bad experiences way back when making soup where I didn’t use enough spices so it was really bland. No one likes a bland soup. This recipe is far from that!

This Chicken Tortilla Soup is made in the crock-pot and has a tomato base. Crushed tomatoes are essential ingredient #1 for delicious chicken tortilla soup. Essential ingredient #2 is chicken broth! Gotta thin that shiz out a bit. #3 is the chicken itself…because it wouldn’t be chicken tortilla soup without the chicken. Essential ingredient(s) #4 is…SPICES.

I’m telling you, spices really are the key to any soup. What’s in this one?

• garlic
• chili powder
• ground cumin
• smoked paprika
• salt and pepper

I guarantee you have all of those staples in your pantry. And if you don’t- I suggest you pick those up ASAP!

I’d say the main reason why I love this soup recipe is because you throw everything UNCOOKED in the crock-pot and let it work its magic. Set it and forget it, AMIRITE?
