Chicken Tortilla Soup

Our rainy and chilly Friday night included us eating a delicious bowl of chicken tortilla soup, Adam playing "Call of Duty" (his bday present to himself;), and me blogging and sipping on pinot! Sounds pretty perfect to me. This soup is so yummy and super easy, but you'll need a crock pot. We finally bit the bullet and bought an 8 quart for around $60, which is about middle range. There are so many recipes you can do in this thing, we are obsessed!

I knew I wanted to try making chicken tortilla because it's always been one of my favorite soups. After searching on Pinterest and google, this recipe came up the most. So we gave it a try and it was amazing. Yes, AHHHHmazing. Click on the link for all the ingredients and how to make the tortilla strips. We started ours when we woke up, went out and ran errands, and it was done it about 7 hours when we got home. We added a mexican cerveza to the mix, from Trader Joes, appropriately called Trader Jose's. Enjoy!
