Loaded with vegetables and flavor this Chicken Tortilla Soup is the perfect warm meal!
I didn’t use to be that big of a fan of soups, but in the last couple of years I’ve started trying out more soups for dinner and I am loving them. Such delicious options and honestly any soup I can load down with tortilla chips and sour cream is kind of a winner in my book. I told my husband I think I could eat anything with enough sour cream. But fortunately this soup is so delicious that if you don’t love sour cream like me you’re still going to love it!
Another thing that’s been important for us this year is making sure I’m getting lots of fruits and veggies since I’m eating for two currently. I love this soup because it is full of veggies and that makes me feel like I’m getting some great nutrients in a delicious soup, that’s a win win in my book!

This soup is great leftover as well. I actually had it for the first time leftover over Christmas because my mom had made it for everyone the night before we arrived. I loved it so much so I’ve started making it at home for Tyler and I and we love that we can get two meals out of it!
