Instant Pot Creamy Mexican Chicken Soup Recipe…

To make this recipe, it is easiest to have an Instant Pot. If you don’t have one, you can still simmer everything on the stove top. An Instant Pot just makes my life MUCH easier. If you’d like to learn more about what I do with my Instant Pot and my opinions, please check out my post here.

The hardest part of this recipe is washing and chopping the vegetables. I don’t even thaw the chicken. It just all goes in together.

I love vegetables and really try to pack as many into a recipe as I can. My husband, someone who isn’t fond of a lot of vegetables, really liked Creamy Mexican Chicken Soup. He claimed he couldn’t even taste the veggies…yay!!!

To help with weekday lunch planning, I like to make my meals on the weekends. I especially like recipes that allow me to fix and forget. Thankfully, that is basically what the Instant Pot allows me to do. It cooks the food and then automatically changes to a “warm” setting. I can make my food without a lot of processed garbage and still have time to do what I want on the weekends without babysitting the stove. Can you tell I’m in love with my Instant Pot? If I had room, I’d probably have at least two, if not three. I use mine that often!

Look at all those veggies! When I did the analysis on MyFitnessPal, it is around 200 calories for a 2 cup serving. AWESOME! This isn’t a super-thick chowder, but more of a creamy broth-based soup.

I hope you’ll give my Instant Pot Creamy Mexican Chicken Soup a try. I like the smoky chipotle flavor with the creamy broth. Please let me know what you like best. 🙂
