Anyone have a good recipe? I've seen them floating around the Dis a few times. Thanks!
 
I make a crockpot chicken taco soup that is really good. haven't made it since last year though so let me think......

2 or 3 chicken breasta

1 package taco seasoning

1 can corn

2 cans Rotel

1 can chicken broth or beer

1 can black beans

1 can chili beans

1 can tomato sauce( I think....lol.. I seem to remember there are 7 cans to open!)

1 small onion chopped

Pour it all in the crock, place the chicken in making sure it is under the liquid. Cook for about 4-5 hours, remove chicken and shred and then put it back and cook for another hour or so. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and chips.
 
Here's my made-up recipe for Tortilla Soup. I usually use ground beef but you can also use chicken.

Layer the following ingredients in a crock pot:

1 pound of ground beef or shredded chicken (cooked)
1 can of black beans
12 oz frozen corn
1 can diced tomatoes
1 packet taco seasoning
1 can tomato paste
Pour in chicken broth until the pot is almost full.

Cook on low heat for 6-8 hours.

You can top each bowl with shredded cheese, sour cream, sliced avocado, diced fresh tomatoes and crumbled tortilla chips.
 

I have made this, but changed it just a little....

When almost ready to stop cooking - maybe with 10 minutes to go - I tear up a couple of CORN tortillas and let them cook in the soup. It makes it a little thicker and more tortilla - like.

So, you just tear up soft, corn tortillas and toss 'em in? I saw some recipes called for them, but they wanted you to bake them to crumble over the soup.

This one sounds delish...one question. I guess when they say enchilada sauce they mean the red sauce. Have you tried it with green enchilada sauce? I like that better for cooking, but was wondering if it could be used in this soup. I may make this tomorrow!

Thanks OP for starting this, I was just thinking about Tortilla soup yesterday. Yummmm.

Corn tortillas - the SOFT kind - will dissolve and thicken the soup. Go slow, and don't add too many.
