What’s better than chicken chili?? Rockn’ Crockpot Chicken Chili! This easy crockpot chicken dump recipe will have your whole family coming back for seconds!
My favorite mid-week meals are ones that are super easy to throw together and have simple ingredients that I usually have on hand at any given time.
Life is crazy enough without making it harder by having to make a meal that requires a lot of time! I really do enjoy the process of cooking a beautiful full meal. But some days ain’t nobody got time for that.
And instead of hitting up the closest drive thru. With a little prep and minimal effort, you can get a fabulous meal on the table in less time than it would take you to get take out! I am ALL for that! Some may call it lazy; I call it smart!

- Adapted from Rita's Recipes
- 2 chicken breasts -- I just throw them frozen and all

- 1 can black beans rinsed -- this is the most time-consuming part
- 1 packet dry ranch dressing
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1 can fire roasted green chilies
- 1 8 oz cream cheese
- Put the chicken in the crock pot.
- Top with the tomatoes, corn,
- the drained and rinsed beans,
- ranch dressing, cumin, and taco seasoning,
- stir to combine then top with the cream cheese.
- Cook on low for 6-8 hours, stirring one or twice to blend in the cheese.
- Shred the chicken into large pieces. Garnish with limes, cilantro, avocado, cheese, sour cream, and chips!!! Trust me peeps this one is a keeper!!!

- Prime Pantry – I love Prime Pantry! It is an excellent way to ensure that all the tings I need are always on hand for a great price. Usually, there is a coupon or a discount available. For those who do not have access to a Costco or Sam’s Club, this is an excellent way to buy in bulk and have it show up right at your door! They are still a little limited on some things, but their inventory is always growing.
