7 Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup

This is the perfect cold weather soup! 
One thing that I occasionally do is freeze half of a large soup or chili recipe. 
That way, if we are really busy one week, I just pull out a container of soup, leave it in the fridge overnight and by the next day it is ready to be heated and served! 
I would love to hear your favorite soup/chili recipes! :-)
