COOK MODEServings: 6 People
Equipment
- 1 Crockpot
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth
- 1 tbsp ranch seasoning mix
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 ounce block of cream cheese (at room temperature, cut up into 4 pieces for easier melting)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (divided)

- chopped green onion for serving
- chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Make the ranch mix. Pour chicken broth into the slow cooker and stir in the ranch seasoning mix.
- Combine and cook. Add the chicken breasts to the slow cooker and stir around to coat the chicken with the liquid. Cover with a lid and set the slow cooker on LOW for 5 hours, or on HIGH for 2 to 3 hours.
- Shred the chicken. When done, remove the lid and shred the chicken inside the slow cooker using two forks or shredding claws.
- Add the cheeses. Stir in the cut-up cream cheese and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, stirring until completely melted and combined. Top with the remaining cheddar cheese; cover with the lid and let the cheese melt.
- Finish and serve. Remove the lid and sprinkle chopped bacon on top. Garnish with green onions and parsley. Serve in sandwiches, wraps, burgers, and/or lettuce cups.
