I love a good chicken tortilla soup. So when I saw a recipe for chicken taco soup, I thought I’d probably like it, too. I didn’t have everything the recipe called for, so I sort of winged it. My version didn’t exactly scream “taco,” but it did taste good. It has a nice kick, making it a great welcome-to-fall soup.
The most amazing part? Poppy tried it! And she said she loved it! I don’t know that that’s true, though, seeing as all she did was lick the spoon four or five times. But still! She tried it! That’s a win in my book.
