Simple ingredients thrown together in the instant pot to make an exceptional soup! It’s everything you love about Chicken Enchiladas, but only needing to dirty one pot. It’s bound to be a family Fall favorite!
This has been one of my favorite soup #wrecipes for the last few years. My dad originally made it for me when I was DF/GF four years ago while nursing my youngest. Since then, we have both worked on developing this soup. Quite honestly, if there is a soup wrecipe on this site, my dad is most likely behind it. Bill is the soup MASTER. My fondest memories are of him laying on living room floor propped on his elbows, bowl of soup and a newspaper in front of him.
I remade it a few days ago with some variations and I LOVED it. My dad is still taste testing the latest.. hopefully he approves! I hope you all enjoy it as much as our family does!
