There is nothing I love more an easy dinner that I can just throw in the slow cooker that everyone will love and these Chicken Caesar Sandwiches fit the bill.

I love that I can just throw everything in the slow cooker and have a delicious, flavorful dinner that everyone really enjoys especially in the summer when it is too hot to turn the oven on.  Whenever I find a dinner that everyone in my house eats I get excited!  And for it to be in the slow cooker? That’s a double win!  These are easy to make and use only 6 ingredients.

This chicken just falls apart and is so tender and packs a ton of flavor.  It cooks all day in a sauce of chicken broth and Caesar salad dressing! Then you shred it up, add some parm cheese and pile it on soft buns with romaine lettuce for an amazing sandwich.

My favorite part is that you can customize this to your family’s taste, you can make it spicy, add more cheese, or anything your family likes!

We love this on soft buns but it is also so delicious on top of rice, baked potatoes, mashed potatoes or even mac and cheese.

If you want to create a little crouton action for these sandwiches, butter your buns and sprinkle them with garlic salt and parm cheese and toast them up.  They take these sandwiches to the next level!
