Add the ground cumin, chili powder, paprika, oregano, salt, black pepper, and the bay leaf.
Stir all the ingredients until well mixed.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours.
Once the soup has finished cooking, remove and discard the bay leaf.
Stir in the fresh lime juice and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped cilantro, sliced avocado, crushed tortilla chips, shredded cheese, or a dollop of sour cream as desired.
