20 Minute Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Soup

Oh hi guys! Boy, do I have the most amazing soup recipe to share with you today or WHAT. This 20 Minute Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Soup has more flavor than you could ever think to ask for in a soup. I ate it 3 days in a row and was sad to see it end. I NEVER eat a meal three days in a row without wanting to cry of food boredom. The avocado and crunchy tortilla chips added on top right before consuming was the best decision ever and gave it great texture.



So, guess what? I am in San Antonio, Texas this week! My very first time in Texas and I am beyond excited. I don’t know if I’ve ever told you guys this before, but I have it on my bucket list to visit all 50 states in my lifetime. I don’t count just being in the airport in a particular state, but actually setting on the ground. When driving down to Virginia Beach years ago, I actually made my in-laws pull over at the West Virginia welcome center so I could walk around and count that as a state I’ve visited. Somehow, everyone just stopped questioning my weirdness at some point in time. I got out of the car, walked around the welcome center, and had Mr. Wishes snap my photo outside of it. Hey, if you don’t have a picture to prove it then it didn’t happen, right?
