Ingredients
3–4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
8 oz cream cheese
1 packet dry ranch seasoning mix
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
6 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
2 tablespoons chopped green onions (optional)
Instructions
1. Place chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker.
2. Add the cream cheese on top of the chicken.
3. Sprinkle the dry ranch seasoning evenly over everything.
4. Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or on HIGH for 4 hours.
5. Once the chicken is cooked, shred it using forks or meat claws directly in the slow cooker.
6. Stir in shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon until everything is melted and combined.
7. Cover and let sit on warm for 10–15 minutes.
8. Garnish with green onions if desired and serve hot.
Notes
Use block cream cheese for best texture—it melts smoother than whipped or spreadable versions.
Pre-cook your bacon until crispy to maintain a smoky crunch in every bite.
For extra flavor, consider adding a dash of garlic powder or smoked paprika.
