Slow Cooker Spicy Chicken Tortilla Soup

Super easy and flavorful slow cooker spicy chicken tortilla soup. A comforting must make meal, perfect to warm up with all winter long!

Nothing hits the spot on a cold winter day quite like a warm bowl of soup. A perfect meal to cozy up with and chase off the chill of the day. I’ve always adored soup season. I have fond memories of sledding or building forts as a child and going back in for lunch, after what seemed like hours and hours of playing, and warming up with a fresh bowl of soup…paired with a crisp gooey grilled cheese sandwich – of course! Classic cold weather comfort food.

And as an adult, that doesn’t change. The only thing that does change is the flavors and complexity of the soup.

As a kid I never would’ve eaten anything other than basic chicken noodle. I mean, it’s a classic and you can never go wrong with that. I still to this day enjoy a good bowl of chicken noodle soup. Who doesn’t? BUT we’re not here to talk about that flavor.
