We’ve already established that I love this season: the sights, the sounds, the football … and the tastes. Even before the weather cools down, as fall approaches, I start pulling out the soup recipes. And it may be 90 degrees outside, but I’m chowing down on some chili and Fritos. Ain’t no shame in my soup-eating game!

Hearty Chicken Tortilla Soup

I have quite a few of these cold-weather soup recipes, but one of my favorites is a traditional, hearty Chicken Tortilla Soup. It’s full of veggies and beans, and well, chicken. The veggies make me feel like I’m doing the right thing for my family. You see, I still struggle with being in my 30’s and not really wanting to eat my veggies. I’d rather have chocolate. But hey, I’m a parent, so I have a set a good example. Right? And this soup makes that very, very easy. 🙂

See … look at all that hearty good-for-you-ness …

Hearty Chicken Tortilla Soup

I also love this recipe because I can prepare it all beforehand, freeze it, and just pull it out one morning and throw it into the crock pot. I don’t even cook the chicken beforehand. It will cook in the crock pot and be oh so tender and delicious. And if you have a smaller family, like me, you can stick the leftovers in the freezer and have it on hand for another day. So many options!
