While this recipe is definitely not a dump and go recipe, the prep work for Crock Pot King Ranch Chicken Casserole for Two is definitely worth it! It is incredibly delicious and so filling. Personally, I love not only the flavor, but that it is a one pot meal. With the generous servings, it is sure to fill you up without the need of a side dish.
If you are new to cooking, don’t let the long list of ingredients scare you away from this recipe. It is actually pretty simple to throw together. Most of your ingredients are mixed together. Then you just do your layers. If you take your time reading the recipe and following the instructions, the slow cooker will do the work of blending the flavors together for you. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do!
