Instant Pot Chicken Enchilada Soup in a black square bowl

Here is the perfect quick wintertime dinner – Instant Pot Chicken Enchilada Soup (Weight Watchers Friendly).

You can get this on the table in under 30 minutes and have extra left over for lunch the next day.

Everything is made in one pot so it’s a simple quick clean up.

This Instant Pot Chicken Enchilada recipe needs a spoon instead of a fork.  The same cheesy spicy delicious flavor as Baked Chicken Enchiladas, but without all the work, long cooking time and clean up.

The best part is if you are on Weight Watchers, this is a very low SmartPoint dinner, lunch or even snack.

Pair this Instant Pot Chicken Enchilada Soup with some baked corn chips and 0 SP Salsa and you’re all set. This is a super kid friendly meal too. Perfect for this busy time of year.

Let’s get cooking.
