I love easy dinners that are full of flavor and that everyone loves.  This dinner is easy and I like that I can just throw in the slow cooker and this Creamy Ranch Chicken is always a favorite.

I love that I can just throw everything in the slow cooker and have a delicious, flavorful dinner that everyone really enjoys.  Whenever I find a dinner that everyone in my house likes that is amazing because I have some picky eaters but they love this chicken!  And for it to be in the slow cooker? That’s a double win!

This Slow Cooker Ranch Chicken is full of rich and savory flavor.  This is a filling dish that is budget-friendly. The base of this dish is chicken breasts which are always a more affordable option and we serve it over rice, mashed potatoes or noodles also very budget-friendly.  

This Ranch Chicken is full of flavor from the tender chicken, potatoes, carrots and a creamy ranch sauce. It goes perfectly over a bed of white rice or noodles which absorbs all that delicious sauce.  Plus the leftovers just get better and better!  

This Creamy Ranch Chicken is always such a family favorite, the ranch flavor is always a favorite with my kids.  You can also stretch it and customize it by adding different veggies like cauliflower or broccoli.

I love that you can tweak this to your family’s taste, you can swap out the veggies or even swap out the chicken for pork.  

This is great served with a little side salad and some soft bread but I like to serve it with these nice and fluffy Lunch Lady Rolls

Everyone is feeling the pinch with the grocery bill right now and you can’t get much cheaper than chicken and potatoes.  So this is a fabulous dinner when you are trying to save a few pennies and it makes a lot!  The leftovers are amazing!

INGREDIENTS

● Boneless skinless chicken breasts-  You can use chicken thighs or chicken tenderloins if you like. 
● Baby potatoes-  I halve these but you can leave them whole or even cut up larger potatoes into little pieces.
● Baby carrots-  I like that I can just dump the carrots in the slow cooker but you can use whole carrots and cut them up. 
● Dry ranch dressing mix-  You want to just use the dry mix, not a liquid version. 
● Cream of chicken soup-  You can use cream of celery or cream of onion or mushroom if you prefer.
● Heavy cream-  This makes the dish creamy and rich.
