What You Will Need: 

  • Choice of either chicken breast or thighs (Boneless) 
  • Cream Cheese 
  • Shredded Cheese 
  • Diced Green Onions 
  • Diced Bacon or Bacon Bits
  • Dry Ranch Seasoning 

Instructions: 

  • Add the chicken, cream cheese and ranch seasoning. Let cook until the chicken is soft and the cream cheese is melted. This will likely take up to 7 hours on the lowest setting.
