Makes 8 servings.

Inspired by this recipe.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 16 ounces low-fat cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons low-carb ranch seasoning
  • 1 cup cooked/chopped bacon (I think there’s a Kirkland brand too, or feel free to cook/chop 1 pound of regular bacon or turkey bacon instead)
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 cups or 7 ounces shredded low-fat cheddar cheese
  • Shredding claws (optional)

Steps

  1. Place chicken, cream cheese, ranch seasoning, bacon, and chicken broth into slow cooker.
  2. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours.
  3. Remove chicken from slow cooker and shred.
  4. If soup is lumpy, whisk or stir to incorporate cream cheese.
  5. Return shredded chicken to slow cooker and stir.
  6. Add cheddar cheese into soup and continue to cook on LOW until melted, stirring as needed.
