chicken taco soup and favorite guac

I've been loving my slow cooker lately!  I made some Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup the other night and it was super yummy!!  It was also great as leftovers.  I put some in a warmed tortilla to make a burrito and it was yum-o!  Our favorite side to accompany any Mexican meal is our favorite guacamole!  Our neighbor Travis shared his recipe and we just love it!  Enjoy!
