Zesty Chicken Salsa Soup Recipe

Zesty Chicken Salsa Soup
All of us have those recipes, the old standbys right? These are the ones that you know will be fabulous with little effort.
This recipe showcases garden fresh tomatoes, garlic, cilantro & onions. If you happen to have limes or avocados in your garden, then they work perfect also!
Ingredients
2-3 Boneless Chicken Breasts thawed
1 onion diced
3-4 cups chicken broth
10 tomatoes [including juice] diced
4 garlic cloves- peeled and finely diced or pressed
4 oz can of green chili (or fresh if you have them!)
2 tsp salt
lime juice 
cilantro (garnish)
Avacados (sliced & served on top)
                                                                   Sour Cream (garnish)
                                                                   Tortilla Chips (garnish)
Put the chicken, onion, broth, tomatoes, garlic, green chile & salt into a crock pot. Turn on high and cook for 4-5 hours until chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken breast and shred with a fork. Add chicken back to the soup and season to taste. If you want your soup to be "brothier" feel free to add more chicken broth. Serve hot with fresh lime juice squeezed on top, cilantro, sour cream, avocado chucks and tortilla chips if you desire. Enjoy!
