Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken Fajita Soup

The Foxglen Park recently held and Super Saturday.  The lunch was soup and bread sticks.  They've graciously agreed to share some recipes.  I'll be adding them as I get them.

Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken Fajita Soup

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (I use 2 breasts and throw them into the crockpot frozen - can't get any easier)

2 cans cream of chicken soup

1 cup salsa

2 cups frozen corn

1 (15 oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained

1 1/2 cups water

1 tsp cumin

1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

favorite toppings

Spray slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.  Place chicken into slow cooker.  In a bowl, mix together cream of chicken soup, salsa, corn, black beans, water, and cumin.  Pour over chicken in the slow cooker.  Cook on low 4-6 hours (or high 2-3 hours).  Remove chicken and shred using 2 forks.  Put chicken back into slow cooker, add cheese, and let cook for 15 more minutes.  Serve with your favorite toppings (shredded cheese, sour cream, crushed tortilla strips, tomato, etc).

Feb 2014 - Recipe - Delicious Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipe

This recipe comes from Patty's daughter-in-law and is one of my favorite food storage recipes.  It's quick and easy and perfect for a cool evening.  In fact I think I'll make some right now!

My trial - this was delicious, I think I could eat it everyday!

Chicken Tortilla Recipe

2 cups bouillon (or 2 cups water)
1 cup salsa (you can change the flavor of the soup by using different flavors of salsa - I used mango salsa)
1 cup canned chicken
1 can canned black beans
1 can corn
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp chili powder
2 tbsp chopped cilantro

Put all ingredients in a a pot.  Cook for 20-25 minutes.  Serve with grated cheese, tortilla chips, quesadillas, sour cream . . .

I didn't drain the corn or beans because I like to have the juice in it.

Easy Taco Soup

Here's an easy recipe to make if you store canned food, I'm re-posting it from our ward's recipe blog.  It's a tasty easy soup that you can even make in a slow cooker.  At our house we like to eat it with sour cream on top.

1 can (15 oz) chili with beans and meat

1 can (15 oz) whole kernel corn, with liquid

1 can (14 ½ oz) diced tomatoes, with liquid

1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce

1 can (15 oz) black beans, with liquid

1 ½ to 3 tablespoons dry taco seasoning mix

Combine all ingredients in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on low heat 6-8 hours. Serve over Fritos with shredded cheese on top. (This can also be made on the stove top—just combine all ingredients and let simmer about 15-20 minutes.)
