Slow Cooker Chicken Chili Tortilla Soup is a family friendly, healthy and delicious meal that is easy to make for busy weekdays.
We’ve been having some cold, blustery days lately so hearty soups, chili and stews have been on my mind a lot. My youngest son loves all things chili. I actually think I could make chili every day and he’d never get sick of it. This Slow Cooker Chicken Chili Tortilla Soup was my way of making chili in another form, just to mix things up a bit. This recipe is so easy – you just dump everything into a slow cooker and let it cook away. I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs, frozen corn, black beans, fire-roasted tomatoes, red bell pepper, red onion, and a pack of chili seasoning. There’s no added fat, so it’s healthy too.

Your youngest and I share a love of chili – and this sounds pretty fantastic, Jeanette! I am very curious about those GF “Little’s” Chili seasonings – they would be such a timesaver during the busy holiday season!
