Chicken Tortilla Soup

jnsullivan05

Does anyone have a good lowfat Chicken Tortilla soup recipe? I love the soup from McAlister's Deli and was looking for a healthy alternative at home. I have googled and found a few but I wanted to know if you have a "tried and true" recipe.

I found a salt free taco seasoning mix recipe online and we've used it to make tacos. Leftovers turn into soup.

I use this recipe and add black beans and corn to make it more filling

The calories are relatively low but the sodium is pretty high.

BringingSherriBack

3 lbs frozen skinless, boneless chicken breasts - boil and shred or chunk
2 cans black beans - drained and rinsed
2 can pinto beans
1 can sweet corn
1 can Rotel
1 small can chopped chilis
1 small can chopped jalopenos
2 packages Hidden Valley Ranch Fiesta Ranch dry mix (found in the salad dressing aisle)
8 cups of chicken broth (canned or 8 bouillon cubes and water)

Mix everything together in a 7 quart or larger crockpot and let cook all day (4-6 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low). The longer it cooks the better it is.

Really good served with a little shredded cheese and white corn tortilla chips.
