This recipe is great for those chilly days or to make ahead and take camping. This is also a great meal for the Crock Pot. Of course, you can boil your own chicken ahead of time and be sure to save that broth.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

A delicious chicken taco soup made with pantry ingredients. Sometimes canned chicken can be a bit overpowering. The key is to drain it very well and it soaks up the lovely seasonings in this taco soup. Cream cheese makes the soup creamy and adds a slight tang. Serve with cheese and tortilla chips for an easy soup on a cold evening.
