You know those creepy little memes with the caption titled “my friends at the end of summer vs. me at the end of summer” and there’s like those grief-stricken faces shifting around and then it flashes to some ridiculous human jumping around a pumpkin? I’m the human jumping around the pumpkin. I cannot help myself and I won’t apologize for being so basic and being excited about fall aka SOUP SEASON.

I’ve been testing this Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup since like…well, July and I am PUMPED that it’s going live. I think I missed the bus with tortilla soup – everyone has been crazy about it for years and I just started making it. I guess I just didn’t realize how easy it was? Oh well, making up for it now!

Speaking of easy, I actually ordered all of the pantry ingredients, aka the broth, tomatoes, corn, beans and most importantly the chips from Kroger.com! Yes…Kroger now ships right to your front door. Here’s why I’m so excited: I don’t have a Kroger around me. Kroger was my favorite grocery store when I lived in the South. They’re affordable but they have really great name brand products. When they emailed to see if I wanted to test out their new Kroger grocery shipping service I was all like “hooohumm, I don’t have a Kroger, womop womp womp”. BUT – it didn’t matter! They shipped right to me! And the best part – orders over $35 get free 2-day shipping. You have to try it!

So, check this out – right to my front doorstep! I basically always have peppers on hand and spare chicken in the freezer, so I didn’t even have to go to the store to make this one. You’re gonna love it!

To make it I just dump everything in the slow cooker:

Cook for 4 hours on high (you could do 8 on low, too) & shred the chicken. Then I add the tortillas to a bowl when I want to eat:

And serve with whatever I’m feeling!

• 1 large red onion, diced

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

1. Add the chicken thighs to the bottom of your slow cooker.
2. Top with the chili powder, sea salt, cumin, and black pepper.
3. Dice the onion and pepper and add to the slow cooker.
4. Then, add the tomatoes, corn, black beans and broth.
5. Cook for 4 hours on high (or 8 hours on low) and then remove the chicken and shred with two forks. This will be easy because the chicken gets so tender.
6. Taste the broth to see if it needs more salt, stir in the chicken and remove from the heat.
7. To serve, in each bowl put about 1/2 cup of crushed tortilla chips and spoon the soup over top. Finish with Greek yogurt or sour cream, cilantro, scallions, avocado – or whatever you want!
