Slow Cooker Cream Cheese Chicken Chili

Slow Cooker Cream Cheese Chicken Chili - That's Amazing! We did it three times this month! We can't have enough !!! Chicken, chicken broth, pinto bean, tomatoes, garlic, onion, jalapeno, cilantro, and cream cheese. It is comfort food at its best. It is a very abundant chili, so it doesn't take much. We usually only eat the chili with some bread.

This slow cooker cream cheese chicken chili tastes so good. It's also effortless to do. Just put everything in the slow cooker and close the lid. I love simple meals like this. It is delicious to lick the bowl. You can use turkey bacon and low-fat cream cheese to cut down on calories. I am not suggesting non-fat cream cheese. It doesn't melt very well in the soup.

If you don't want to cook this slow cooker cream cheese chicken chili in the slow cooker, you can cook it on the stove. Just cook over medium heat until the chicken is done. If you want to shorten the cooking time, use ground roast chicken instead of raw chicken breast fillets. If you are using roast chicken, pour all of the ingredients into a baking dish, bring to a boil, and simmer for about 20 minutes.
