My husband loves to travel. I knew that he had a taste for adventure when we met – actually, that’s a big part of what attracted me to him. We used to travel around the world together, but since having our kids (3 and 1) that’s slowed down quite a bit for both of us.

While he’s away there are days when it would be easy for me to have complete meltdown – especially when the little ones are hungry and I’m tired. That’s why I have a slow cooker – specifically an Instant Pot which is way better than a regular slow cooker.

It does everything – you can pressure cook, slow cook, saute, make rice, soup, chicken and beef – even cake! –  in this thing. It’s a lifesaver. I use it every week and when I’m on solo duty with the kids it’s pretty much all I use for meal prep.

This Chicken Tortilla Soup is extremely flavorful and comforting. You can actually make it in a snap using the pressure cook function on the Instant Pot. I personally, do not like pressure cooked chicken. I find that it’s not as tender so I prefer to slow cook this recipe.  

I like to add Cilantro Essential Oil at the end for an extra twist. It also supports healthy digestion and detoxification. I make a big pot of this in my Instant Pot and we can get 2 to 3 meals out of it depending on how much the kids eat. My 1 year old can eat grown men  under the table. It’s crazy…

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this! Feel free to make it your own!
