Spicy Chicken Soup

This soup has a lot of things going for it.

It can be made entirely in the slow cooker.

The chicken cooks in the soup, so no need for an extra step.

Just like taco soup, there are a million variations. Use what you’ve got available in your pantry.

Here are a few variations:

• use both red and green peppers, or just a green pepper
• use a can of diced tomatoes with green chilis
• use canned corn, instead of frozen
• use kidney beans or red beans
• skip the rice
• skip the chicken and use a variety of beans to make it meatless
• top with cheddar, Monterey Jack or pepper Jack cheese

It will turn out different every time, but they will all be good!
