Low Carb Crockpot Chicken Tortilla Soup
Looking for a quick tortilla soup to make on a chilly weeknight? Try this easy low carb chicken tortilla soup right in the crock pot or insta pot!
I love Chicken Tortilla soup. It’s one of my most favorite things. But I hate black beans that seem to be in every single recipe ( i know, kill me) and it always takes me so long to make a tortilla soup. I love soup. But I hate it out the can.
C-Dub and I were doing whole 30 last month ( a big fail) and I wanted soup. I NEEDED Chicken tortilla soup…without the tortillas and without a whole lot of other things that make Whole 30 Whole 30. And my low carb chicken tortilla soup was born.
I literally threw things into the pot and made this soup.
IT WAS SO GOOD.
The good thing about this soup is that even though it’s whole 30 compliant and Paelo , and gluten free it’s GOOD and we are still eating it.
Oh and did I forget to mention that I made this in the crockpot on a weeknight?
YASSSS. ALL the YAAASSES.
This low carb chicken tortilla soup recipe is so easy to make you literally dump all the ingredients in the crockpot and set it based on how much time you have. For me that meant since I remembered I needed to cook dinner at 1, it went in for 4 hours on high.
By the time Pookah got done with homework and Cdub got home from work, dinner was ready!
PERFECT.
Of course, I’m sharing the recipe!

You had me at crock pot! I’ll be adding this recipe to my dinner rotation.
While I love black beans, my husband hates them! I love a good Chicken tortilla soup, and bonus for it being crock pot! I will have to try this out very soon
This sounds like a great soup to enjoy in the cooler months, even if you aren’t following Whole 30! I’d eat it anyways. I think I actually picked out the tortilla strips the last time I had this soup.
I love finding a good soup recipe! It’s the best thing in fall weather. I so need to get a crockpot!
This looks delicious, definitely going to have to try soon! Awesome post and recipe 🙂
I’ve never tried the whole 30 diet before but I’m really curious about it. I think this is perfect for Fall! And I love that it’s a healthier version too!
I love soup season. This is a fantastic recipe. Just healthy and sounds and looks delicious.
Sounds amazing! I am always looking for soups this time of year so I really want to make this soon!
This sounds so good and hearty! I know my family would love it. I need to go to the store and get everything I need to make it this weekend!
You sold me at crockpot. I love tortilla soup. I can’t promise I won’t sneak it some tortilla chips but I love that this recipe is simple and healthy too.
Do I have a crockpot? Let me check, if not I am buying one just to make this asap. Tortilla soup is one of the only soups my kids love.
I have never used chicken thighs before in a recipe, but I’ve heard that it produce more flavorful entrees. I’m too hard-headed…I want to make this, but with boneless skinless chicken breast.
I love tortilla soup! This recipe looks great and the avocado chuncks make this even more tasty!
Ooh, I LOOOOVE Tortilla Soup recipes! Especially excited to try this one because it’s in a crock pot and so very healthy!
This Tortilla Soup looks like the perfect meal to help me warm up on a cold fall or winter evening. I love how easy it is to make in the Crockpot.
Ok, how can a recipe that looks so good be healthy too? I would love a bowl right now!
I love an easy fall recipe! This looks delicious and definitely one that will be perfect for busy fall days!
Yes, more crockpot recipes. I’ve been looking for a healthier version of tortilla soup as it’s one of my favorite comfort foods. You don’t need tortilla strips and cheese to make soup taste delicious.
Tortilla soup is so good. I usually like to load mine with cheese, but this looks like a tasty version I can make without all the extra calories. And I can still get the cheese I crave just as a garnish.
Wow, can’t believe all I have to do is throw the ingredients into the crock pot. That is my kind of meal! Thanks for sharing. Pinning to try this one.
