Chicken Enchilada Soup
A perfect dinner for a cold day (yes there are cold days in Arizona). :) This soup is very easy to make and cooks all day in the Crockpot making the house smell oh oh so good. I wasn't too sure if my husband would like it (since he doesn't like soups), but he had me put it on the "make again" list. However, for us weanies, I substituted the jalepenos for green chilis.
