Healthy Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipes

HEALTHY CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients, except the cheese, corn tortilla strips and avocados to your crock pot. Cook on low for 8 hours (or high for 3-4 hours).
• Take out the chicken, shred it, and add it back to the soup.
• Add cheese just before serving, and top each serving with your favorite toppings (we like corn tortilla strips and avocado).
• To make homemade corn tortilla strips, slice up corn tortillas with a pizza cutter. Flash Fry in hot oil or bake in the oven at 425 for 8-10 minutes turning halfway through. ENJOY!
• * For stove top: heat all ingredients 30-40 minutes.
