Course Main Course

Equipment

  • 1 crock pot
  • 1 blender can use food processor

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup buffalo hot sauce Frank's is my fav!
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning
  • ½ cup yellow onion can add more if you'd like
  • 4 oz reduced fat cream cheese for extra creaminess Optional

Instructions
 

  • Prep your crockpot: Add the chicken breasts to the bottom of the crockpot.
  • Sauce it up: In a blender or a food processor, mix the buffalo sauce, ranch seasoning, and cottage cheese. Pour this over the chicken.
  • Dice up ½ onion and add that to the crock pot
  • Set it and forget it: Cook on low for 6-7 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours. The chicken will shred easily when it’s done.
  • Shred and serve: Use two forks to shred the chicken right in the crockpot, letting all those flavors soak in. Add the 4oz of reduced fat cream cheese while it’s still hot to melt. Stir until melted and serve!
