Tips from leigh Anne

  1. You can use leftover chicken, rotisserie chicken, or you can cook chicken before. Three of my favorite cooking methods for chicken are Microwave Shredded Chicken, Instant Pot Shredded Chicken and Slow Cooker Shredded Chicken.
  2. This soup is delicious on its own, but I like to serve it with grated cheeses, sour cream, tortilla chips, sliced avocado, green onions, and black olives.
  3. Tortilla Chips can be used as a thickening agent too, if you want a thicker soup, crush up the chips and stir them into the soup.

    Just served this to my friends visiting from Cali. I added red beans and left over rice to bulk it up a bit. They loved it!
