A rich and creamy slow cooker dish made with tender shredded chicken, ranch seasoning, and cream cheese, perfect for busy weeknights.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 packet ranch dressing mix

- 1/2 cup cooked green onions (optional for garnish)
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker, ensuring they are spread out evenly.
