21 Day Fix Chicken Enchilada Soup

Chicken Enchilada Soup

I know I haven’t posted a recipe in awhile and though writing about parenting seems to have become more of a passion for me I’ll always be in the kitchen and I’ll always share the nutritious and yummy recipes I have cooking up. This 21 Day Fix Chicken Enchilada Soup was inspired from a pinterest search I did the other day, I changed it up a bit because I used chicken from a dip I made for a holiday party. I had this soup in mind when I made the dip so I just made more chicken and used it a few days later. I’ll share with you how I made it but if you don’t want to make the chicken ahead of time or want to use rotisserie chicken you can refer to the original recipe. I did not add corn because my belly hates it though my taste buds love it. So go ahead, add some corn in there. I added red pepper because it went with the theme and I happened to have one I needed to use up.

This 21 Day Fix Chicken Enchilada Soup WAS awesome! It had great flavor, heat it up with red pepper or more franks hot sauce if you want to add more heat to it. Enjoy it with a dollop of low fat sour cream, non-fat plain greek yogurt or even shredded cheese, just remember to adjust your containers. This came in handy when I came down with a head cold, it sure helped clear up those sinuses! Click here for more 21 Day Fix Recipes.
