Buffalo Chicken Soup
Ingredients:
- 32 ounces 99% lean ground chicken or 5-6 medium chicken breasts (or rotisserie/canned if you prefer!)
- 3 wedges light swiss laughing cow cheese
- 1 block fat free cream cheese
- 1 cup franks red hot buffalo wing sauce
- 3-4 cups low sodium chicken broth (use 3 cups for a thicker soup, 4 cups if you like your soups more soupy/thin!)
- 1 packet dry ranch mix
- 1 can diced green chilis
- pepper to taste
- 1 can rinsed black beans (I didn’t add this because I didn’t have any on hand, but they would be a great!)
Recipe Notes:
- There are two options here! You can make a 4 hour version of the soup, or 8 hour, totally up to you! Either low and slow, or a more quick route!
- 4 hour route: brown your ground turkey in a skillet / bake your chicken (450 degrees for 18 mins) before putting in the crockpot. If you use a rotisserie/canned chicken, you can skip this step altogether!
- 8 hour route: throw everything in the crockpot raw!
Directions
- Combine all ingredients in a crock pot on low for 8 hours!
- Make sure your raw ground chicken is broken up when you dump it in the crock pot, this help it cook quicker and it leaves you with less to break up at the end!
- Break up any remaining chunks of ground turkey / shred your chicken breasts, give it a good stir and enjoy!
