Okay, so this is one of my favorite recipes on cold, winter nights. And if you’re on a budget, this is the dinner recipe for you. The cook time is about 4 hours unfortunately but I can promise you it’s worth it, especially if you’re a buffalo chicken fan like I am. I took this recipe from mostlyhomemademom.com, so check out her website for more of her awesome recipes.

            You will need:

  1. 2-3 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
  2. 2 stalks celery, diced
  3. 1/2 onion, diced
  4. 2 carrots, peeled and diced
  5. 4 15oz cans Great Northern beans, drained and rinsed
  6. 2 14oz cans diced tomatoes, undrained
  7. 5 oz bottle hot sauce – I would say this should be however much you like hot sauce. Start adding in small quantities based on preference.
  8. salt & pepper
  9. blue cheese dressing or sour cream

 

Instructions:

           

  • Place all ingredients, besides dressing or sour cream, into the bottom of a Crockpot. Add enough water to cover ingredients.
  • Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 6 hours. Shred chicken with 2 forks and stir stew well.
  • Serve bowls topped with blue cheese dressing or sour cream.

 

Enjoy!
