Sunday Supper: slow cooker edition

Welcome to Sunday Supper: Slow Cooker edition

Cooking is such a beautiful expression of creativity. The most simple ingredients can be transformed into a palate pleasing meal.
When I cook I plan my meals based on what I'm craving. Sometimes my cravings take me down the healthy path and other times the path is a little more hearty.
BEWARE...Today is going to be a hearty meal day. If you need vegetables then this is not your meal. unless you consider fresh tomato and green onions as your daily vegetable.

Ingredients:

• 6 chicken breasts
• 1 32oz carton chicken broth
• 1 hidden valley dry ranch packet
• 1 8oz container of whipped cream cheese
• 1 8oz pack of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1 3oz pack of Hormel Real bacon crumbles
• 1-2 lbs Oreida tator-tots
• FatMatts BBQ sauce
• Diced tomatoes
• Diced green onions

Directions:

1. Place all 6 chicken breasts in your crockpot
2. Pour your chicken broth in the crockpot being sure to cover
3. Set your crockpot on high and cook till your chicken temperature reads 165 degrees (3-4hrs)
4. Once your chicken reaches the desired temperature take it out of the crockpot and place it on a cutting board to cool.
5. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees for tots
6. Put some parchment paper onto your cookie sheet then place tator-tots on top.
7. Cook tots to your desired crunchiness (20-30minutes)
8. Shred your chicken and place extra shredded chicken into leftover containers.
   I portioned out 2 breasts for this meal. You can freez the unseasoned portions (I had two leftover containers with two breast per container) then use later in the week for other meals

   whipped cream cheese
   hidden valley dry ranch packet
   chicken broth to help melt and mix the ingredients
