An easy yet fun way to make Crock-Pot Chicken Enchilada Soup. No pre-cooking the chicken, just add the ingredients, and you will have a yummy soup!So continuing with my soup kick, decided to try one with enchilada sauce. It was yummy and the family enjoyed it.
Slow Cooker Chicken Enchilada Soup
This lovely Mexican inspired soup is super easy to put together and toss in the slow cooker. And the flavor is really out of this world!
I like to top bowls of this comforting chicken soup with shredded cheddar cheese but you can use whatever your favorite taco-type toppings such as sour cream, diced avocado, sliced black olives. Or use a different type of cheese such as pepper jack, Monterrey jack or queso fresco!

Notes
Nutrition
What is the exact servicing size? This is my only criticism of your recipes. Knowing how many servings per dish is helpful, but when you are counting calories, carbs or points it is most helpful to have specifics.
Sorry Katherine, we don’t measure out exact serving sizes. We are not nutritionists. Instead we divide the whole recipe by potion and that is how the nutritional information is calculated. So in this case this soup makes 8 servings. So a serving is 1/8th of the recipe. That is the best we can do.
Did you use red or green enchilada sauce? Thanks.
Hey Phoebe, in this recipe we used red enchilada sauce but I believe it would still taste good (different but good) using green enchilada sauce too. I have gone ahead and edited the recipe to reflect that the recipe calls for red though.
