When the weather starts dropping, I can’t think of anything better to eat than a big bowl of homemade soup. Usually, I rely on my mom or grandma for this, but since I am an adult now, it’s all up to me.
In college, my soups were always just broth and vegetables. For some reason, the idea of cooking chicken and shredding it was too much of a hassle. Even now, it is a deterrent.
But to make this task a little easier, I decided that I would buy an already cooked whole chicken from the grocery and substitute that, instead.
Last year, when I originally thought of this, I told my grandmother and she said, “No, absolutely not.”
I know I’m not the first one to think of this short cut, but my grandmother said that it was out of the question. “You can’t make a chicken broth without cooking the chicken,” she told me.
But I wasn’t making my own chicken broth, I was buying it, in can form. Apparently this was not the proper way to make soup.
Although this Chicken Tortilla Soup is made in the slow cooker and has a lot of ingredients, most from a can, I guarantee it is an easy, delicious meal.
