I pulled up Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup on a weeknight when the kids were already negotiating snacks.
As it warmed, the kitchen smelled like roasted tomato sweetness over a low simmer. I chilled the dough while the oven climbed; patience pays in texture.
Cleanup stayed sane; I rinsed two bowls and called it progress.
A spill happened, of course, but parchment took the hit, not my pan.
It wanted brightness, so I set lemon wedges on the table and it helped immediately.
It plays well with a simple rice side; the kids barely noticed the swap from fries.
A small pinch of flaky salt at the end made the flavors feel deliberate, not accidental.
Lunchboxes approved: reheated gently, the texture held and the flavor actually rounded out.
I’d toast the spices longer and pull back on the sweetness to sharpen the edges.
