Earlier this month I got to go home for two weeks, and I did not realize how much I have truly missed it down there.

Now, of course I’ve missed my family, the sunshine, and sweet tea that isn’t spiked with whatever artificial fruit is trending this week (I’m pretty sure they tried to pass of blueberry tea as sweet tea to me last week)…

But, I have really really missed good ole’ Tex-Mex.

Ok, so maybe we need to throw that sweet tea into the really missed pile and just call it southern cooking…cuz y’all what they try to pass off as sweet tea here is no joke.

Instant Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup

Anyways, while on vacation we went to this little hole in the wall restaurant (the best types to find when you are on vacation) and I had the most heavenly bowl of chicken taco soup.

It was so good that when I finally got back home to the frozen north and started craving a warm Tex-Mex soup, I knew I needed to recreate it.

And so I tried to make this Tex-Mex chicken soup in my pressure cooker, and the first couple of times it was a total flop. The texture was right but the flavor was just missing something.

Then I realized I was cooking without cilantro.

Y’all that’s like failing Tex-Mex 101.

Seriously, cilantro.

Then came round two, and viola, we had nailed down the Instant Pot chicken tortilla soup recipe!
