Ingredients

  • 2.5 pounds chicken breast trim excess fat
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 3 tablespoons of my Homemade Ranch Seasoning*
  • 16 oz. cream cheese*
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 6 sliced cooked bacon chopped
  • 1/3 cup chopped green onions

Instructions

  • Add the chicken breasts, minced garlic, diced onions, chicken broth, and ranch seasoning to the crockpot. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours without opening the lid.  (This is optional, but I like to saute the garlic and diced onions with a tablespoon of ghee before adding to the crockpot).
  • Shred the chicken with two forks and add in the cream cheese and shredded cheese. Mix together with a spoon and add the lid back on for another 20 minutes. 
  • Sprinkle with the chopped bacon and green onions. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Dairy-Free: If you are dairy-free feel free to sub your favorite dairy-free cream cheese and shredded cheese. 
  • Storage: Store in an air-tight container for up to 3-4 days or freeze in and freezer-safe container for up to 3 months
