Creamy Healthy Chicken Enchilada Soup

Happy New Year everyone! This year has been a good one for me and hoping that 2024 brings happiness to all. I know a lot of you are getting back on track in the new year. This recipe is my go to for lunches. I make a big pot on Sunday and have it all week. It is filling, has 380 calories a serving and 40 grams of protein. I pair it with a bag of Quest Protein Chips for another 19 grams of protein bringing this meal to about 500 calories total with 59 grams of protein! It all gets dumped in a crockpot, which makes it even better!



Creamy Healthy Chicken Enchilada Soup

  • 1 lb. chicken breast
  • 1 box chicken bone broth (4 cups)
  • 1 can green enchilada sauce
  • 1 can diced green chilis
  • 1 can white beans not drained
  • 1 cup corn
  • 1 pkg. McCormick white chicken chili seasoning
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tsp. cumin
  • 1 cup light cottage cheese (I love Good Culture)
  • 1/2 cup skim milk
Add all the ingredients except cottage cheese and skim milk to a crockpot. Set on high for 4 hours. Remove chicken and shred. Add back to crockpot. Blend the cottage cheese and skim milk until smooth. Add to the crockpot and cook an additional 45 minutes. Garnish with light shredded cheese and light sour cream. Enjoy!
