{NEW} Creamy Chicken Tortilla Soup ????
Low carb, Low sugar, Gluten free, Paleo friendly, Protein packed, Clean Eating Comfort food!
{ This is THE BEST tortilla soup I’ve ever eaten! It’s a tad on the spicy side, which we LOVE here…but if you want a more mild soup you can definitely decrease the amount of peppers in this recipe. The flavors just get tastier the longer it cooks, and it’s even BETTER the next day, which makes this ideal for meal prep.
I love to set out a variety of toppings and allow the kids to top their own bowls…they love it!
