Crock Pot Chicken Chili

I love a good crock pot recipe that you can dump in and walk away from, come back to and it’s cooked perfectly and absolutely delicious. This Crock Pot Chicken Chili recipe is just that! The even greater thing about it is you can use the chicken for so many different things: add tortilla strips and eat as soup, use a little less juice and use chicken and veggies for tacos, enchiladas, nachos, etc.

Ingredients

Scale

Pantry Items

  • 1 (15oz can) Black beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 1 (15oz can) Corn Kernels (un-drained)
  • 1 (10oz can) Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies (un-drained)
  • 1 (1 oz package) Ranch Dressing mix

Seasonings

  • 1 Tsp Cumin
  • 1 Tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder

Refrigerated Items

  • 1 (8oz package) Cream Cheese
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Instructions

1. Place chicken at the bottom of the crock pot. Add in all canned items

2. Top with seasonings & ranch mix

3. Cut your cream cheese into chunks and place on top (cutting into chunks will allow it to soften and melt more evenly).

4. Leave on low for 6-8 hours until chicken is cooked through. Shred right in pot with 2 forks and mix altogether to combine cream cheese with veggies.

Notes

  • Freeze everything but the cream cheese in a freezer bag for a super easy “dump” meal later on, or gift to a friend in need.
  • Substitute Fiesta ranch mix and void all seasonings if you’d like to make it super easy.
  • For a thinner chili, you can add just a little bit of chicken broth to thin out the consistency.
  • Don’t have chicken breasts? No problem! Substitute in chicken tenders, use about 2-3 lbs total.

This girl is always begging me for coffee. Ummm absolutely not. 

I was the strict mom who didn’t let my kids have cokes and such. Once a week. On the weekends. And only Friday OR Saturday. Never both. 

I’m a big believer kids don’t get the same things as adults. My rules we’re when you can pay for it, you can have it. Like nails. 

I believe a huge part of our youths problems are thinking they are your equal. Instead of your CHILD. To be the child means they can’t do grown up things and rely on YOU to make good, positive, healthy decisions for them. 
That’s the point right? Their brain isn’t developed yet. So why we letting them run around making decisions for themselves? 

Anywho…..then there is me as a grandma. I still try to be a positive influence and keep her little but I don’t have to be the parent. 

So, today I let her get a coffee. DECAF. Half sweet. 

She thinks she is HOT STUFF at the @dutchbroscoffee 

Little does she know. I’m still always going to look out for her best interest. And I am not afraid of saying no. Ever. 

Love is boundaries. 
Love is tough sometimes. 
Love says no. It’s not what’s best for you. 

Quit trying to let the world tell you love is letting your kids grow up too fast and being your built in bestie. 

You’re their protector. ✝️
I’m not a huge breakfast eater. And if I do eat breakfast, I prefer meat. Like I could be the girl who eats a full on steak for breakfast. 
Needless to say, I’m not a sweets eater. Very rarely do I eat donuts or such. 

But when I do, I love a chocolate with peanuts or coconut. And a side of donut holes. 

Today was one of those mornings. And I swear since Covid my sweets craving is a smidgen worse? Or is this menopause? 🤷🏼‍♀️
Sweet, creamy, crunchy, and just the right amount of messy! 🍎🤤 This is the kind of treat you make once and immediately start thinking about when you can make it again!

A few simple ingredients, a little mixing, and you’ve got a sweet treat that’s almost impossible to stop eating. And let’s be serious… anything involving marshmallow fluff is already off to a good start! 😂

Would you try this sweet and salty combination?

I feel a shift coming. A really strong shift. 
Decernment is oh so real. And it is even stronger when you’re quiet. 🫶🏼
