Slow Cooker Green Enchiladas Chicken Soup
We can’t get enough of this warming recipe from Kori Shuda of Seeking Good Eats. “[This] chicken soup [has] a Mexican flair, creamy, cheesy broth, chunks of tender chicken, and a bit of spice,” notes Shuda. “This soup uses mainly pantry ingredients, chicken from the freezer, and a couple of fridge items,” she says, adding that you can feel free to swap the protein, different salsas, and cheeses based on what you have on hand.
