INSTANT POT CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP
This Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipe is one of the family’s favorites. Everyone enjoys eating this soup recipe. And the leftovers always get eaten as well! We have been getting a lot of snow lately and it finally feels like a real winter around here, so I have been craving some of our best comfort food recipes.
As you know, I have been trying to transform all of our recipes to be as gluten free as possible because of my daughter who has Celiac Disease. This is also a Gluten Free Chicken Tortilla Soup. Just be sure to use Chicken Broth that is gluten free because sometimes there is hidden gluten in some of your favorite brands.
