Chicken Tortilla Soup

I am becoming increasingly obsessed with my slow cooker. The main reasons for this are that it is extremely fast (less than 15 minutes of prep. time usually) and convenient (I can cook my meals while I sleep). So, today I have another recipe that I just finished slow cooking:) I am actually enjoying it as I type:) I hope you can too!

Chicken Tortilla Soup
Serves 5

2 lb. Boneless, skinless Chicken Breast
2  (15 oz.) cans Diced tomato (no salt added)
1  (7 oz.) can Green Chilies (drained)
1/2-1 cup Chicken Stock (no salt added)
1 chopped yellow onion
1 tsp cumin
1 Tbs garlic powder (or 2 cloves fresh garlic)


Place chicken breast in the bottom of the crock pot. Combine all other ingredients and pour over chicken. Cook on high for 4 hours. Shred chicken. Serve warm topped with corn tortilla strips (I just ripped up two corn tortillas with mine). Salt and pepper to taste.
