Get dinner on the table in under 30 minutes with this Pressure Cooker Chicken Taco Soup recipe. An easy, healthy recipe that is perfect for chilly days.

It’s time for another Recipe ReDux challenge! This month’s theme has to do with our favorite kitchen tools:

“Did you receive a trendy new cooking gadget as a holiday gift? Or do you have a tried-and-true kitchen tool you couldn’t do without? Show us a healthy recipe highlighting a favorite kitchen tool, gadget, or gizmo.”

My kitchen tool I decided to feature isn’t something I received for Christmas, but I did get this past year: my pressure cooker.

I love the pressure cooker. I don’t have the ever popular Instant Pot pressure, but instead I own the Power Pressure Cooker XL, which I purchased from Costco. I love it because it’s like a slow cooker where you put all the ingredients in and it does all the work, except in a lot less time than a slow cooker! Healthy breakfasts, lunches and dinners can be made in a snap!

This recipe is no exception to why I love the pressure cooker. Dinner is on the table in under 30 minutes with this Pressure Cooker Chicken Taco Soup recipe. It’s an easy, healthy recipe that is perfect for chilly days. I switched it up from traditional taco soup by taking out the red meat and using chicken. I also used low- or no-salt added varieties of the canned goods and taco seasoning. By making small and simple changes, the health benefits add up quickly!
