Skinny Slow Cooker Southwestern Black Bean Tortilla Soup

December 20, 2019 by Kelly 56 Comments

Although I am from up north, I am not a cold weather girl. How about you? Do you prefer warm or cold weather? I live in the south now, so our winter season is mild. We only have a month or so of frigid weather. When it is cold outside, I love to get a pot of soup going. There is nothing like a hot bowl of soup to warm the soul, right?! One of our favorite recipes is my Skinny Slow Cooker Southwestern Black Bean Tortilla Soup.

Who said a hearty soup had to be loaded with calories? This Skinny Slow Cooker Southwestern Black Bean Tortilla Soup recipe is as healthy as it is packed with flavor!

My husband loves loves Tex-Mex food. I make it at least 1-2 times a week. This Skinny Southwestern Slow Cooker Black Bean Tortilla Soup recipe is a pot full of Tex-Mex love! I call it my “kitchen sink” recipe. I get out the crock pot and toss in anything I can find that resembles a Tex-Mex or Southwestern ingredient.

I love avocados, but my husband doesn’t. I will top his soup with just sour cream, a little cheese and fresh cilantro. For mine, I go all out! I add the toppings my hubby loves as well as the avocado. The tortilla chips add a nice crunch. Trust me when I tell you, this is a recipe you are going to make often! It freezes beautifully, making it a great dish for potluck dinners, new moms or your Wednesday night church supper.
