Thank you!
Patty White says
This looks so yummy, but sorry I don’t understand: you put the chicken in raw, or cook it first?
Stephanie says
Yes, the chicken goes in raw. Hope you enjoy, Patty!
Patty White says
I know I will enjoy it. Thanks so much. I love your blog.

I put my crockpot on this morning and I have to say it’s pretty delicious & so easy! Looking for something else to serve with it! 🙂
Mary Ann says
This was my first successful crock pot meal! It is SO good and SO easy. I made it 3 times already. Thank you! MMM 🙂
Stephanie says
That is wonderful to hear! I’m so happy you love it like we do 🙂
Mary Ann says
Update – I have seriously made this soup at least 30 times. I LOVE IT!!!!!! Great way to get protein in a yummy way! I use Tastefully Simple “Onion Onion” and “Garlic Garlic” though… and I also add a can of black beans. It is the best and easiest and healthiest crock pot recipe by far! THANK YOU!!!!!!
Mikey says
I used ground turkey instead of chicken and added black beans. Tastes great!
Stephanie says
That’s so great to hear! Thanks for sharing 🙂

Patty Lamb says
I thought it had lots of Mexican flavor, but my family likes a heartier (thicker) soup.
Natalie Williams says
Tim does too so I added a cream soup to thicken it.
Natalie Williams says
gong make for a cold rainy day!

That huuuuuge, delectable pile of shredded cheese on top is screaming my name 🙂 as well as big ol’ hunks of avocado as a garnish! I am in love with this soup, girlie! So flavorful and perfect for a chilly January evening when I don’t feel like cooking (which is, uh, every evening) 🙂
celeste meehan says
do you shred the chicken once it’s cooked, or cut it up beforehand? thanks!
Stephanie says
Hi, Celeste! I shredded it after it cooked – better add that to the recipe, thanks!
