Ingredients
  

2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 packet (1 oz) ranch seasoning mix

1 cup chicken broth

6 slices of cooked bacon, crumbled

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 medium onion, finely chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup cream cheese, softened

8 sandwich rolls (sub, brioche, or your choice)

Fresh arugula or spinach for garnish (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Slow Cooker: Start by placing the chicken breasts in the slow cooker. Season with salt and pepper.

    Mix in the Flavor: In a mixing bowl, combine the ranch seasoning, chicken broth, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Pour this mixture over the chicken in the slow cooker.

      Add the Creaminess: Add the softened cream cheese on top of the chicken and ranch mixture, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.

        Cook Low and Slow: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and easily shreds with a fork.

          Shred the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and mix in the crumbled bacon and cheddar cheese. Stir well to combine all ingredients.

            Heat Through: Allow the mixture to cook for an additional 15-30 minutes on low until the cheese is melted and everything is heated through.

              Serve: Toast your sandwich rolls (optional) for added crunch, then scoop generous amounts of the chicken mixture onto the rolls. Garnish with fresh arugula or spinach for a pop of color and taste.

                Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy these delightful sandwiches with your favorite side, like chips or a fresh salad!
