I think I’m officially ready for Fall already because I’m finding myself craving soups, even if it is still 93 degrees outside. So I’ve mentioned before that I’m a huge fan of Mexican food… we eat it at least once a week. So now I’m combining two of my favorites in one savory dish for my Mexican Soup Recipe!

  • (2) chicken breasts
  • 1 bag of Spanish ready rice
  • 1 can of corn, drained
  • 1 can of black beans, drained
  • 1 can of cheddar cheese soup
  • 1 can of Mexican stewed tomatoes
  • 1 small can of chopped green chilies
  • 3 cups of water
  • 1 package of fajita seasoning

To make the shredded chicken for the Mexican Soup Recipe, I usually put the chicken breasts in the crockpot for 4 hours with 1 cup of water and the fajita seasoning. Cook on high for 4 hours. Then it will easily shred into perfect pieces for the soup.

The longest part is waiting for the chicken to cook in the crock pot, but the rest of the recipe goes quite quickly! Great for a quick dinner to pull together after a long day at work, especially if you prepare the chicken the night before.
