Slow Cooker Black Bean Tortilla Soup Recipe

When I made this, I did not use green chiles, lime, cilantro, or cheese just based on personal preference and I made a homemade enchilada sauce, so I did make it slightly different, but I loved it! I added a light sour cream and tortilla chips when served. It made a lot of food and I used it for my lunch meal prep at work and I didn't get sick of it! It was also so easy to make. Will be adding this into my meal prep rotation.

This was just okay, I still gave it a thumbs up though because I think it can be better with a few adjustments and it's extremely easy/low touch. I only added 3 cups broth and wouldn't do more than that (maybe even 2.5 next time), as some of the other ingredients contribute to the total liquid amount as well. I found the fresh onion to be really sharp tasting relative to the other ingredients (and I don't mind raw onion) - I might saute briefly next time or make sure to add to the bottom of the slow cooker to see if that helps. I also thought it would really benefit from more seasoning (cumin, etc.) edit- okay I didn't even want to finish the leftovers for this so gotta give it a thumbs down

This is going in my regular rotation! Everyone got seconds and there still was some leftover. Yum!

So delicious! I tried a dairy-free sour cream, which was so delicious!

Didn't start it in time to use the slow cooker so made it on the stove, cooked the onions and bell peppers until soft then added everything else. Added tablespoons of mexican seasoning. Cut the veg stock to 2 cups. Let it simmer for about 20 minutes. It was thick enough that meat eating husband didn't even realize there was no meat in it.
