The first step to creating Crock Pot Sloppy Chicken was to put some Schar Gluten Free Entertainment Crackers into a ziploc bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
Then I sprayed the Crock Pot with cooking spray.
Next I dumped 2 cans of boneless skinless chicken, gluten free cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, and gluten free cream of mushroom soup into the Crock Pot.
After stirring the ingredients together I dumped in the crushed crackers.
I stirred the ingredients together again.
Then I put the lid on and set the Crock Pot to Low for 6 hours. Occasionally I stirred the chicken mixture.
After 6 hours I removed the lid and gave it a stir.
Then it was time to serve up the delicious Crock Pot Sloppy Chicken.

Pour a generous spoonful over each half of your biscuit or bun!
