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