Ingredients

1.5 to 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 cups chicken broth
1 cup water
1 (1 oz.) package dry Ranch seasoning mix
1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese, softened and cubed
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, plus more for serving
2-3 cups fresh spinach, chopped
6-8 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
1 cup heavy cream
Salt and pepper, to taste
2-3 green onions, chopped, for garnish

Steps:

Add chicken breasts to a lightly greased slow cooker. In a medium bowl, whisk together chicken broth, water and Ranch seasoning mix. Pour over chicken.
Add softened cream cheese to crockpot along with chicken. Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours, or until chicken is cooked through and tender.
Remove chicken from crock pot and shred; set aside. Stir in cheese, spinach, and most of the bacon (reserve some for garnish). Return shredded chicken to crockpot.
Cover and cook 10-15 minutes more, until spinach is wilted and cheese is melted. Stir in cream just before serving. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Serve topped with additional cheese, bacon and chopped green onions.
