Crockpot Chicken Fajita Soup is The Best!

| TASTY Slow Cooker Soup

This one, in particular, is super tasty and full of zest. You really can customize the spice in this by changing from mild, medium, or hot salsa. You could also add diced jalapeno, or hot sauce to kick up the heat as well! I have a tendency to keep things on the mild side so that everyone in my house will eat. Those who like it spicy can zest it up when they eat.

I love slow cooker/crockpot recipes. They are perfect when you are a busy working person such as myself. I am sure I repeat myself a lot, but a slow cooker is a lifesaver for me while working full time and raising a family. It is fuss-free!

| The BEST Soup Recipe

Maybe because I am partial to my own recipe, but my family says this is the BEST chicken fajita soup. Last night my husband declared that it was the best soup he’d ever eaten and love that it was the perfect mix of creaminess and broth. Thanks, hubby! (He’s my biggest supporter) 🙂
