Chicken Enchilada Soup

 
On a cold winter day
 
 
 
      nothing is better than
a little soup.  (At least, that is what I think.)
 I generally don't share many recipes,
but I tried this super yummy soup
 that was easy, delicious
and the kids loved it
 
 
 
 
5  (5 oz) chicken breasts– cooked, shredded
1 (15 ounce) can  diced tomatoes, mashed
1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce
1 medium onion, chopped
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chili peppers
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups water
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 (10 ounce) package frozen corn
 
 
  1. Place all the ingredients into a crock pot.  
(I put mine in a oven safe pot and cooked it for about 5 hours at  350 degrees.)
 
2.  Cover, and cook on low setting for 6-8 hours or on high setting for 3 to 4 hours.
 
3.  Remove and discard the bay leaf from the pot.

4. Serve and add a little shredded cheese, sour cream
and maybe a couple tortilla chips
 
It was delicious.

The recipe is adapted from the Tervis blog,
which I changed up a bit to our own tastes. 
You can check out their version. 
Plus, I LOVE
their products that are made in the USA
and have a lifetime guarantee.
Let's just say I have several.
