• Put chicken breasts on top of mixture and make sure they're at least partly submerged in liquid.
• Cook on high 6-7 hours or low 8-9 hours.
• Before serving remove the chicken breasts from soup and shred, if needed, (sometimes they'll just fall apart on their own, but sometimes they need some help). Return chicken to crock pot, stir to combine.
• If you want to make the thin tortilla chips that you put in your soup take 2 or 3 tortillas and cut them into thin short slices about 1/4 inch wide and 2 inches long. Place them in a fry pan with olive oil (just enough to cover the whole bottom of the pan) fry till golden brown, place in a bowl with a paper towel and put aside till soup is ready. Slice avocados into small wedges.
