Crockpot Chicken Enchilada Soup

This a fantastic and comforting soup for a chilly winter night. I wanted to try making an enchilada soup, but have been getting home a little later these past few weeks. In comes the trusty crockpot! This soup turned out amazing. Ron told me that he absolutely loved it and it needs to be on rotation with a few of our regulars. I love that it is a set it, and forget it soup- perfect for a weeknight. Enjoy!
