Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup has got to be one of my top 10 meals of all time. I love it so much because you dump everything into the slow cooker in the morning, and you let that simmer away all day, making your house smell amazing! Then by the time dinner rolls around, you’re so excited to eat it because you’ve been smelling it all dang day.

I love to make slow cooker meals when I have a busy day, or on Sundays so when I come home from church everything is ready. Though, I can’t *technically* endorse leaving your slow cooker unattended at home. I mean, have you seen This is Us? Jokes aside, I love my slow cooker and use it all the time during the Fall.

• Taco seasoning (I use this constantly, so I buy this giant container from Amazon)

How to Make Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup

Okay, I’m not really supposed to say this word (especially around my kids), but I’m going to say it anyway. This recipe is STUPID easy. Oh, not the word that you were thinking of? Haha.

I digress. This recipe is so simple I can do it early in the morning when I’m still a little delirious from being awakened by my toddler (anyone else feel that?). Literally, all you have to do is put all the ingredients, except the toppings, in the slow cooker for 6-8 hours. That’s it!!

After that 8 hours is up, all you have to do is check to make sure your chicken is cooked through (if it’s not, you probably forgot to turn on your slow cooker, lol) and shred it, then mix everything up.

Top with your favorite toppings and serve! You can serve this with a side salad or some homemade rolls or cornbread for a super easy and yummy meal.
