As I was prepping the ingredients for this Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup, it was a white, winter wonderland of snow outside my window.

Kinda fitting for a slow cooker meal, right?

Now, snow and I don’t necessarily mix, as I would much rather be somewhere warm than freezing cold. But, I have to admit that I do love watching snow fall. As long as I can stay warm from inside my house. There’s just something cozy about snow and a good slow cooker dish to warm you right up.

And while I use my slow cooker year round, it just feels extra special to use it in the winter. And when I can prep a meal on a lazy weekend and let it work its magic, it sounds even better.

It just so happens that tortilla soup is one of my favorites. The hubster and I adore Mexican food, and whenever we go to one of our favorite spots, they always serve us a bowl of their homemade chicken tortilla soup. It’s smooth, creamy, and definitely hits the spot…especially when paired with some chips and salsa!
