Easy Creamy Crockpot Salsa Verde Chicken
Author: Lovely Little Kitchen
Serves: 6-8

Ingredients:

4 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 5-6 large)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
8 ounces cream cheese, cubed
2 cups salsa verde (I love Trader Joe’s)

Directions:

Add chicken to the crockpot, and then top with seasonings, cubed cream cheese, and salsa.
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
Shred the chicken with two forks. Use a whisk to mix the remaining sauce in the crockpot. The cream cheese may look a little lumpy, but it will smooth out as you stir.
Add the shredded chicken back to the crockpot. Cook on low for another half hour to allow the chicken to absorb the creamy salsa verde sauce. I usually turn my crockpot to the “warm” setting at this point. The sauce will thicken up slightly as it cools.

    I made this too and it was so good!! Even better the next day. I’m so glad it’s getting cooler out bc I hate cooking and now I can be lazy and use the crock pot more often well that still involves preparation so we’ll see how well that goes LOL
