How to make Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Chili:

1. Spray the inside of slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Place chicken breasts inside of slow cooker. Add all ingredients except for cream cheese and blue cheese, mix together.
3. Add the block of cream cheese on top of other ingredients and cover with lid. Cook on low heat for 7-8 hours (or high heat for 3-4 hours).
4. When finished cooking, remove chicken breasts from slow cooker and shred using bear claws or two forks. Return chicken to slow cooker and mix in, making sure to incorporate the cream cheese.
5. Add additional buffalo sauce if desired.
6. Top each bowl of chili with blue cheese crumbles.

Tips to make this Buffalo Chicken Chili Recipe even better:

• 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. 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.
• Change up your toppings! You can add tortilla chips, sour cream, green chiles, green onions, chili powder,cheddar cheese and even ground chicken.
• Cool to room temperature and store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
