Slow Cooker Creamy Tortilla Soup

This soup is a perfect dinner to make. It takes only a few minutes to get it in the slow cooker. This is one of my very favorite soups to make. The reason?

  1. It’s so easy.
  2. Everybody loves it.
  3. Most of the time I have all the ingredients at my house.
  4. You can use frozen chicken.

I made it twice last week! That says a lot since I don’t often repeat recipes 🙂

What Slow Cooker Did You Use?

To make Slow Cooker Creamy Tortilla Soup I used my 6 quart oval Kitchenaid slow cooker.* I love this slow cooker. It cooks low and evenly. I love the medium heat choice because most slow cookers that I’ve seen only have the option of cooking on low or high. If you’re going to buy just one slow cooker, this is the one that I recommend.

    After a family vacation to San Antonio, our daughter asked if I could find a recipe similar to the Chicken Tortilla Soup we had in a restaurant.
    While doing an internet search, I came across your recipe. It is the best!
    Slow Cooker Creamy Tortilla Soup is a fall/winter staple at our dinner table.

    You put frozen chicken in the crock pot? Can it be thawed chicken instead?

    This is the next recipe I will be making in my crock pot. Can’t wait. What I want to know is where did you find the super cute soup bowl that says soup on the side? I love it!

    For Anne who wanted to find a sub. for the cream of chicken. I purchase the brand Pacific natural foods. The cream of… soups come in a box, so no BPA, and are organic. The ingredients are real. You can find them at a Sunflower market if you don't see it at your regular store. Or maybe a Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Sprouts.

    Any substituion recommendations for the cream of chicken soup? Trying to eat more organic and less processed foods (ok with canned vegetables). Otherwise, sounds yummy – I love soup from the crock pot!
