Chicken tortilla soup!

I LOVE chicken tortilla soup. But I'm usually in a hurry with a million things to do in my few short days off and still have to find quality time for my beautiful baby boy.
So, here's my quick and easy "dump" recipe :)

1 Crockpot (if you've never used a crock pot liner, you should try them. They are AMAZING!)
1 rotisserie chicken, de-boned and shredded (in a pinch you can sub in canned chicken)
1 10oz can enchilada sauce
1 can rinsed, drained black beans
1 16oz bag frozen corn (can sub canned corn)
2 4oz cans diced green chillies
1 14oz can chicken broth
14oz water
2-3 cloves garlic
1 tsp Cumin
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 tbsp chopped cilantro

*1 can whole, peeled tomatoes - diced
*1 medium onion - diced
*1 small jalapeno pepper - seeds removed and diced
Can sub 1 small jar of salsa for these items



DUMP it all in your crockpot and cook on High 4 hrs or Low 6-10 hrs

Top with tortilla chips, cheese, sour cream and enjoy!
