Easy Keto Chicken Taco Slow Cooker Soup

Tex Mex Keto Chicken Taco Soup is an easy hearty soup that will keep you warm and toasty during the cold months of the year. Perfect for when you are craving comfort food that is keto-friendly and a breeze to prepare.

I must confess that this girl L O V ES soups. In fact, if possible, I would have a soup like this keto chicken soup just about every day as a meal. 

This soup is loaded with the flavors of the Southwest. It’s what I consider my low-carb tortilla soup. Of course, no tortillas are in this soup, otherwise, it would not be a keto chicken taco soup. But what it lacks in tortillas, it makes up in bold Mexican flavors.  

Do also check out my Keto Tex Mex Recipes if like me you’re a fan of these flavors. I also have a complete list of Keto Chicken Recipes that I encourage you to also visit.

If you do not have a slow cooker, I highly encourage you to invest in one. I personally love a programmable one because it really makes things simpler.

Cooking in a slow cooker just makes meal planning a breeze. Can you agree with me that in today’s busy world we can all use tools to make things easier?

I don’t know about you but when it comes to figuring out what to make for dinner, it has to be something easy. Especially if it’s a weeknight meal, simplicity is a must.

Bravenly premium supplements

The idea of creating something that requires a bunch of steps or hard to come by ingredients just doesn’t thrill this girl.

This is why this keto soup, is perfect for those days when you need to put something on the table quickly but it also needs to be healthy and delicious. Is that too much to ask?

Back when I had not made eating low-carb a lifestyle, I REALLY enjoyed Mexican cuisine. Homemade salsa and chips were a staple in our home, as well as other Mexican dishes. Come to think of it, I don’t believe I’ve ever tasted a Mexican dish I didn’t enjoy.

Unfortunately, many of those yummy dishes are way too high in carbs and so they no longer fit my lifestyle. But let me be frank, this doesn’t mean that I don’t sometimes crave the rich bold flavors that make up this delicious cuisine.

I’ve converted my fair share of Mexican dishes to be keto-friendly and I suspect that trend won’t be ending any time soon.  But I was craving taco soup, which is why creating a keto chicken soup that tasted like a traditional tortilla soup suddenly became a priority.

Keto Chicken Slow Cooker Soup 

I’ve always been a huge fan of taco soup and it was a rare thing for me to go to a Mexican restaurant, and not order tortilla soup as an appetizer. 

Although this easy keto taco soup does not have a tortilla substitute, I think it’s still pretty amazing and hits the spot perfectly. I made my keto chicken tortilla soup using boneless chicken thighs. However, you can easily swap the chicken thighs for ground chicken or beef. 

It’s keto chicken tortilla soup with cream cheese making it a creamy option that is made easily in a slow cooker.  Make dinner a delicious breeze by making this keto soup in your crockpot. Perfect for when you want a satisfying meal that is simple to make. 

Alternately, you can make this easy keto taco soup in a regular five-quart pot on the stovetop.  In this case, your soup will be ready in about an hour.
