{NEW} Crockpot Chicken + Lime Soup ?♀️??
{ I posted a CREAMY chicken & lime soup a few days ago that is already recieving phenomenal reviews! This one is SIMILAR, yet heartier.
If you like soup, and LOVE a little lime & jalepeno, then you’re covered with a few new meal ideas?
I still LOVE my crockpot! There’s just something wonderful about preparing ingredients in the morning when full of energy, then coming home EXHAUSTED after a full day to find dinner READY in the slow cooker! Nothing compares to that feeling and comfort!
