Recipe For Chicken Taco Soup!

 

009 From scouting events to conference meeting dinners, to down home good cookin, this recipe is like a an old friend. Warm, comforting and reliable.  Now that the temperature has dipped into the 70’s, It was time to pull out the crock pot and make a pot of Chicken Taco Soup. Just as I do when I make BBQ Chili or Refried Bean Soup, I wanted to  feel the comfort of this soup wrap it’s aroma around me like a warm blanket guarding off the late Autumn chill.  It’s everyone’s favorite soup, I’ll just bet it becomes one of your favorites too.

Topped with cheese, corn chips, or whatever, this is just a dump and simmer in of recipe. But I used the Crockpot!

  13. I have a question about the crock version. When you cooked your chicken, did you cook it in the chicken broth?
