Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Chili is perfect for dinner tonight. An easy recipes bursting with flavor.
Do you ever feel like all your slow cooker recipes start to taste the same? Not with this Buffalo Chicken Chili.
My sisters have mentioned that to me on more than one occasion and being the slow cooker junkie that I am, I decided to try and find a recipe that would mix it up (and one that your family will still enjoy).
Prepping this Buffalo Chicken Chili is SIMPLE – it’s one of those dump-and-go recipes where you just toss everything in the slow cooker and let it simmer all day long.
I used frozen chicken breasts for this recipe, which makes it even easier. You could also use cooked chicken breasts, and cook it in the stock pot, in just a matter of minutes.
Most grocery stores now sell pre-cooked and shredded chicken in the deli. This is a great time saver and shortcut for those busy busy nights.
In an effort to lower the sodium (soup tends to get really high in sodium really fast) and make this a tiny bit healthier, I used reduced-sodium white beans and reduced-sodium chicken broth. No difference in the taste.
However, if you have regular chicken broth or beans in your pantry, go ahead and use those (but you probably won’t need to add any additional salt to the recipe).
Another healthy swap you can make is with the cream cheese. My Kroger store recently started carrying Greek yogurt cream cheese, which has two times the protein as regular cream cheese.
We served this soup with a fresh green salad and our 30 Minute Dinner Rolls for a quick and delicious meal.
