It does not get much easier than Easy Mexican Chicken Soup. All you have to do is open everything and dump it in a crockpot, then let it cook all day. This is a great healthy meal option that will also allow you extra meals for during the week. I usually only make the soup but decided to make corn bread the day I made this, which goes great with it.
