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!

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.

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.
