Find your recipe here: https://adventuresineverydaycooking.com/recipes/enchilada-soup/ My all-time favorite thing to make with our Mexican leftovers, is chicken enchiladas. But making those enchiladas into soup… well that’s just pure genius. This soup is super easy to make, customizable with your favorite veggies, and best of all, it’s keto friendly!
Thank you John Casey for suggesting me record a Keto friendly recipe! Enjoy!
