Instructions

  1. Place the chicken breasts, carrots, onions, garlic, cilantro, jalapeno, bay leaf, Old El Paso Enchilada Sauce, and chicken broth in a large slow cooker. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Cover and turn the slow cooker on medium to low. Slow cook for 8-10 hours.
  2. When ready to eat, remove the chicken breasts and shred with two forks. Place the chicken back into the soup. Then crumble 8 Old El Paso Tostada Shells into the soup and stir.
  3. To serve: Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish with more crumbled tostada shells, a sprinkle of cheese, sliced avocado, and diced fresh tomato.

Notes

  • This slow cooker recipe is made to simmer all day while you are at work. You can turn your slow cooker on high and cook it within 3-4 hours, but you will need to saute your onions first, because they won't soften in the slow cooker in that time.
  • This soup keeps very well in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Leftovers taste amazing for reheated meal prep lunches and dinners!
  • To Freeze: Cool the soup completely before transferring it to an airtight container. Wrap the container in a layer of aluminum foil for extra protection. Place in the freezer and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop.
