Day 24: AMAZING Chicken Fiesta Soup


Ding Ding Ding!!! Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a winner! I pinned this last week, and couldn't wait to try it because it sounded so good.  It was a perfect Sunday meal- I love my crock pot!  The pin doesn't contain a link.  It was just posted as a photo with the ingredients listed beneath it.  So I'll give a little more detail and write out the recipe here.  


Chicken Fiesta Crock Pot Soup


  • 2 frozen chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)
  • 1 can Rotel 
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can corn
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 packet Ranch dressing mix
  • 1 tbsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder or 1/4 whole onion, uncut
Put all the ingredients in the crock pot and cook on low for 6-8 hours.  Shred chicken and stir before serving.  Yup, that's it.  

Can you believe it?  So easy!  And it was AMAZING.  I dumped everything in the crock pot before I left for church, and when we got home, the house smelled so good!  Then I just used two forks to shred the chicken and break up the cream cheese (it was still in a few big pieces, but super soft).  I would hardly call this soup.  It was so hearty, I put it in a tortilla for the boys because I knew they'd never eat it unless it was disguised. We tried it with tortilla chips.  THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT WARM DIP FOR PARTIES!
I think mine was thicker than the original recipe because I used frozen corn, so there wasn't any liquid like there would be with canned corn.  You can adjust the recipe for tastes and purpose.  Winner winner, chicken dinner!!!
